1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard Flame Top at Emerald City Guitars.... Incredible Sustain!!

[hirskdubbi]

thats just annoying

[oldtilter]

I bet the Amp goes to 12

[jamesguitarplayer1]

i guess u wont be smashing that live on stage

[cheruguito]

That´s feedback.

[laza023zr]

That's not sustain, that's feedback..

[spicyMcHAGGIS9green]

The fucking sustain, man. GOT DAYUM!

[huzza18]

That just made me laugh . I just went off for dinner ,came back and the note was still there :D It's incredible how just a single note can make u feel amazing ;)

[dragoninja000]

Thats a beautiful tone on that Les Paul. Crazy >_<

[SoundWavesSurfer]

What a sound!!!

[bonchie1]

Stop shaking the string with vibrato. I can make any decent guitar with a good fret job do that with vibrato.

[xXXPrinceAlbertXXx]

Great guitar, but does your amp go up to 11?

[ThieleM]

aaah, the beauty of unpotted pickups.

Thats a great sounding guitar

[Juda0326]

This is not sustain, its feedback. Any other humbucker loaded guitar would do that with the same amp.

[chevapi]

@Juda0326 It depends on the guitar as a system, and this system seems to be very responsive to speaker and the amp at lower gain settings.

Thanks emeraldcityguitars for sharing the video!

[joeperrymk]

aahaha Thats fuckin' awesome! I have never seen a guitar with this much sustain!! Thats f'in amazing! Then again Spinal Tap an Jimmy Page an all the big guys said the 60-70's Les Paul's had the best sustain!

[snagartube]

nice instrument!!! however, that is not pure sustain... it's a well controlled feedback that sounds absolutely amazing!

[EnragedSlash]

for all the guys saying "my guitar has more sustain" and something like that... be aware of the difference between sustain and feedback. the true sustain on a guitar can be heard even when the instrument's not plugged, that's a real proof!

[zerogravity121]

let it ring naturaly without bending, sustain wont be that good

[Scrappalino]

You can go get a bite... and you'll still be hearing that one... listen...

[ohrofax]

i get more sustain from my self made guitar

[LeMaitreDeSorts]

I get sustain like that from my yamaha se 350h

[TheF86Sabre]

YAWN

[WoWintosh]

I got the same amount of sustain with my bolt-on double-locking-bridge guitar and my super cheapo Ibanez 15 watt practice amp. All you need is a lot of volume

[svtman93]

@WoWintosh ok keep dreamin there man LOL



[WoWintosh]

@svtman93

No dreaming here. I can get the same amount of sustain from my Lester or my ES-359 out of my Egnater/Marshall as I can with my practice rig. Just crank it up and sit near the amp. Raising the action helps a lot too. You don't need set neck this or tune-o-matic that or back-breaking mahogany over maple.

[emeraldcityguitars]

hahah sorry guys 100% real.

[joeysrocks]

@emeraldcityguitars There goes those frets.

[FlipGordon]

Fake look at the glare in the Guitars finish, You can see its like a repeat of the same thing for a few seconds. Plus look at his watch, Same constant motion.

[lampens]

Nobody ever hear about feedback?

The sustain on les pauls is long but not like this.

[zeppedled]

I can and have gotten lengthy sustain on my LP just by doing the same thing, vibrato with your finger. its pretty simple to do.

[goofywilly]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­!!!!!!!



[winster626]

Its seems to get louder after a while....

[gavquinn]

@winster626 mmm hmmm... maybe compression or feedback perhaps..?

[weedsmokerweed]

@gavquinn Thats what you get when you blast a good paul through a tube amp tha iss naturally distorting.

[gavquinn]

@weedsmokerweed That kinda sustain has something behind it.. Something, that's not natural, not all on it's own.

[weedsmokerweed]

@gavquinn I know what youre thinking but when I vibrate a high note like that through my Paul while the tubes are turned up loud naturally distorting it will ring like that, its basically heavenly feedback!

[weedsmokerweed]

@gavquinn I guess thats true in a way because it is feedback and not the guitar but the LPs sustain does make it easier.

[svtman93]

HOLY JEBUS LISTEN TO THAT SUSTAIN!!!!!

[Disco234jockey]

FAT FAT FAT NECK

[FIGURES2U]

wtf how long can it go for ?

[GreenyIsBest]

0:10 - 0:42 holy shit man! that's what i call a perfect les paul

[ddos411]

wow impressive! 

[Whicol2]

Beautiful guitar....and no doubt great sustain....but NO way you can call "wiggling the string" with your finger true sustain....I could do that for hours...big deal!

[hansfordjr]

How much is this guitar worth in excellent condition? serial number 0 7084

[bowlingballpudding]

@hansfordjr are you selling one? i would be interested

[hansfordjr]

How much is this guitar worth in excellent condition?

[UNGETABLE7]

I see you found the "sweet spot" ;)

[44eelz]

is that a 90s one? or one of those newer ones with that teardrop neck???

[gerby90]

duude thats nigel tufnel's guitar in Spinal Tap!!

"listen to the sustain, just listen for a minute" "i cant hear anything"

...

"you would, though, if it were playing"

[BrunoFariaTM]

that was beautiful

[Hellozan11]

Is that the natural sustain?

[TubeFreakJonas]

@Hellozan11 - 'Course not, its amplifier gain sustain.LOL Just teasing. Unplugged would be 'natural' sustain, also a great quality.

Nice Burst. The PAF pickups and old wood make a delicate 'airy' sound that has a nice bite and crunch to it. The faded Aniline red dye around the rim of the sunburst top hints at an early 1960 model, possibly with specs typical of a 1959 serial # guitar. Could have even been built in '59 and ink-stamped later. I bet it has the large frets popular on '59s.

[gkip]

now that's music dammit

[pivotgodxd]

all you need now is an amp that can go to 11

[gmlasam]

Only a Gibson would have that singing sustain. Man that was beautiful.

[LesPaulKLO]

I... I think I just came a little.

[dretot]

Come on now, I need more than 42 sec. and I need to hear that bridge pu!
