Don't get me wrong, I get a kick out of your whole demeanor on these vids... but I wish you'd talked a bit more about the mini-humbuckers, in particular how they differ from the ones in Firebirds. You know what else would be awesome? Make a video compilation of yourself playing the same riff (maybe the opening Sweet Child Of Mine lick) through PAFs, more recent humbuckers, mini's, P-90, and single coil, etc.. It would be the the ultimate tone comparison tool on YouTube.
That LIL Dilly-e-o is a total piece of POS....Check out my video on LOCKS...You dont have to make the Button Holes bigger and you can use the original screws IF they are long enough.
Man, I love your version of Little Wing, I keep coming back to hear it. I guess it'll make me try to transcribe it, tabs on the Internet are different.
Aside from how incredibly cool Phil X is, and how well he plays, these videos are cool because they want to show you new things, like the difference between humbuckers and single-coils or what mini-humbuckers sound like.
Thanks for playing this guitar without overdrive from hell...It always kills me when people plug in great guitars and crank up the gain and say listen to the tone on this!!!!!!!!LOL!!!
dude i have a 78 deluxe lp and today i learned little wing and i am a huge guns n roses fan so this video is for me rather than davids mum i guess even though i dont know her rip
@curunduraj If you live in Canada, Long and McQuade sells them. But another thing you can use is Grolsch beer tabs, they have this little rubber ring that will stretch around your strap buttons, and it works very well.
That is a beautiful guitar and a fantastic demo. 1973 Les Paul Deluxe's are my favorite guitars. I have one now, love it, play it every day. Wonder what it would be like to have a non-modified one?
@themanchild27 I was thinking the same except having minihumbuckers in both the neck and bridge. If you find a way let me know, I'd be interested in knowing how you managed that.
its a shame mini humbuckers and p90s aren't more popular. to me they are much more interesting, tonaly, than the more modern humbuckers gibson, and its players, turned to.
I have a question. I have a Les Paul STD and it has a different head stock on it than a normal STD. It has like a Custom like head stock, so with that being said, is the headstock on this one the same way?
One of the first guitars Ace Frehley bought after joining KISS was a Gibson Les Paul Deluxe like this, but he had full sized humbuckers put into it. The guitar sounds awesome either way, love this guy's energy! Could you play a some KISS in the future?
Nice sweet child. Do you think the les paul double cutaway have as good a tone as the a les paul standard? btw, you have a very good sound, i would go see you if you lived around here.
i'm sure that Slash is not making videos for youtube. He's playing live, making solo records and doing tours... You're still stoned and playing guitars for sale Phil.
@MarianoDeVenezia Phil's also in two successful bands, and he's played on countless other albums in his career. And he's got chops on guitar that most only dream of having. And you're sitting at home commenting on youtube videos.
