Mexican Tele and Japanese Les Paul

[shredmaster100]

tele is great ithe sound cuts through well and you can clearly tell the difference between the 2 the les paul has more bottom end and is better for the high end of the fretboard telcaster is just a good all round guitar

[RocktronGamer]

The tone is so amazing on both guitars. You got that crunchy tele tone then the sweetness and smoothness of the les paul sneaks in...amazing!!

[wero454]

@RocktronGamer maybe it's his hands that make that beauty of tone! o.o

[LPcustom76]

nice playing but slow that vibrato down.

[lanszer]

Thats a sweet tone of the les paul! nice!

[arthy4]

what scale you wear here?

[NightKidX]

What backing track is that?

[hardrockerdave94]

Nice playing man, and I love that Edwards, I've got one too, mine's an E-LP-90SD

[ten8goa]

Uber-talented. AWESOME TONE AND TECHNICAL ABILITY.Watched this 3x back-to-back

[85funnyguy]

does the tele have a 60 on the headstock because if so i have the same guitar but with a black pick guard i picked it up used for $340

[jimihendrixfan2008]

Two different sounds from two different guitars.

[DayTripperLennon]

just bought me a mexican tele sunburst, just like yours. And honestly its the best guitar I have ever owned, no regrets on buying it!

[ponsadsll]

What's the song he played ?

[TheRulobilly]

@ponsadsll Sounds like Desconfío - Pappo

[kharlos84]

I like the crunchy sound of the Tele

[georgebeatles197]

wath kind of backing track are you using???

[ke1mc2]

I t doesn't matter what fucking guitar is in his hands, it sounds good! It's like Tiger Woods (minus the hookers). Tiger picks out your 4 iron out of your bag and hits it 250 yards nice! The whole time you think your clubs suck. He says they're not that bad. You take the club back and just look at it. Practice and learn. And then practicet alot more than that. And then more than that too.

[Budzich]

both are great but this time tele :)

[sthugh]

Tele any day.

[NoiseMostBeautiful]

had a sunburst tele (the sexiest guitar alive) with lindy fralin hot wounds in it, it rocked the block. I would like to own/play a gibson one day, but it's been cost prohibitive so far.

[whatashock01]

Wow!  Amazing x

[3dguit9r]

hey¡!¡!¡!¡!¡

existen los silencios

tocas muy bien.

[traindude95]

reminds me of SRV

[randomtwit]

Dude that Tele is the TONE

:D

[randomtwit]

wow that tele sounded alot like a 59 paul.. and your paul sounds like a duoJet.

( i think i need a vacation lol... ) Great Playing!!!

[micmoable]

great playing man! Like the Mex Tele----

[flogz23]

yo thats sounds like a ray charles piece but on guitar..very nice

[cookiesaregreat]

What's the name of that backing track?

[tellycastin]

Great playing, great post.

*Check my Tele vid.

[doctordelfuturo]

the tele sounds so freacking good!!!!!!!!! reminds me jimmy :C

[moronslave]

I love the sustain from Les Paul! Great playing

[themanman42]

one of the best blues I ever heard ! You are aawesome, YOU ARE GREAT GUITARIST

[crawzillarulz]

where did you get that japaneze Gibson Les paul?

[Keevawn]

The les paul, it didn't get ugly in the loud end.

[TheRealJohnnyGlass]

Dear Lord, all I want is this backing track.......

[rockerz4ever21]

telecaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[zthetha]

Snap! Got a TeleMex and a pre lawsuit Jap LP - both black and both incredible. Having owned American made originals I can say without fear of contradiction that these guitars are AT LEAST as good.

[TheMullerFan]

pretty safe to say that pretty much all old japanese made guitars are awesome as shit. i know cause i own 4

[TheRaidenJhon]

Both Are Fucking Great guitars

[GabrielKai]

I'll take the tele

[1twistedtree]

the guit is fine but the pus ispus if you get my drift. just my own ear you understand.................

[GorchizZza]

This what i call "cool music"

[driftpick1125]

price for japanese les paul?

[ebouwman034]

@driftpick1125 $800 read the description!!!!!

[tijuana626]

Iam Mexican an I love The Les Paul!!

[JuanElNegrote]

Les Paul for me.

[huzza18]

The Les Paul s a Tokai right ? If someone could please tell me the exact model ? Thx !

[chqtarzan]

very nice playing!

[jimmyaz101]

Les paul kicks that telles ass 100%. Unless you like a tinny sounding guitar that sounds cheap. The les paul is so warm it touches my soul.

[jortiz1600]

you know youre stuff but youre throwing it all in one bar. slow down !! youre good.

[motlencore89]

The Tele won for me, but that Kamakazie Guitar wasnt bad either!!!!! XD

[JohnLennonVideos86]

the tele all the way

[singe62]

Why pay more !

[kai715]

Anyone know which scales he's using for the licks here?

Thanks.

[dannythepcfreak]

@Xevamir thats basically what i just said LOL i own a strat a les paul a ML and just got rid of an explorer i know what tone is lol :P

[Xevamir]

@dannythepcfreak Awwh, good for you. Who fucking care how many guitars you have?

The Tele IS better, it's TONE is BETTER.

[dannythepcfreak]

@Xevamir lol not for the stuff i play

[iKiiiLzx]

Les paul the smoother and warm tone got me

[dubbly1]

Yo, I'm gonna get an electric guitar for my 15th birthday and I don't know scales but I have watched youtube vids on how to play my favorite songs and guitar playing looks really fun. I don't want a cheapo guitar either, I'm into stuff like the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, jimi hendrix, Cream, (eric clapton really inspires me) Guess Who, the Rolling Stones, classic rock. I like both the Tele and the Les Paul but I can't decide which one I want, so I wanted a pro's opinion(btw, nice playing) Thanks!

[jwahh]

That's a standard MIM Telecaster?? Damn.. Sounds amazing for 500 bucks. Thanks for posting. Excellent playing.

[koshiaru]

@jwahh Everyonce in a while you get a MIM Guitar that is an absolute gem.I played 3 American standards, 2 road worns, and a highway one,all Telecasters, but when I picked up a black MIM Tele off the wall, I walked out with that one.Best playing neck ever and amazing electronics. I'm afraid to change the tuners, in case of losing the magic that came stock.sometimes you get LOADS more that you pay for.

[jwahh]

@koshiaru Cool man.. post a vid of it. I love the sound of Telecasters. They don't get near enough credit.

[koshiaru]

@jwahh All right I will once I get her strung back up.I've been leaving it unstrung because i've been using my strat that I built up, also an MIM. It didn't have magic before, now it does.check that one out if you want.

[tknick90]

i own both :)

[david85251]

I dont know which is better, but your playing certainly rocks.

[JonasSweden1]

I have both exact guitars, they both sound great in its own way. And especially good in your hands, well played!!! :D

[PainlessTragedy]

Favorited :O

[PainlessTragedy]

Death to Google Ads.

[d24isDURIAN]

great music id give u 5 stars if i could

[JL2996]

Beautiful man!

[pureoffering7]

the LP tone seems so much clearer... not as muddy and blech as the tele... though I guess that could just be because it seemed darker.

[Hemorraghe]

let me just pick my face from the flour

awesome dude!

[laidbackx3]

i dont like the les paul tone, but the tele is amazing;)

[carlosroj]

Great! Where did you learn to play man!

[rockingpimi]

i dont like the tele's tone, but that les paul is amazing ;)

[TheHadleyConners8]

Good playing can make any guitar sound good. Awesome job man!

[poorbachelor]

nice guitars,lovely music!

[telecaster24]

Luv it Bruddah, its dah shiznit, My ears and soul love it

[74LesPaul]

Nice comparison . . and you did not talk us to death. Thanks!

[LBDoctorJesus]

Wow, his style is really unique, you know, kinda reminds me of joe perry crossed with slash a little bit!

[deapwavelio]

@LBDoctorJesus I think he sounds a little like Perry. Really nice video.

[dandemon1989]

the les paul is so much COOLER, much better tone

[milnemayne78]

i never thought i would say this but this is without a doubt the BEST blues guitar video on youtube and trust me i have seen alot of them

[hps94]

nice play:O

[bugsong]

I have that exact telecaster! 2008-2009, baby. Both guitars sound amazing, but the tele has that rock 'n' roll edge that I love. Awesome playing, too!

[stratman7000]

i'll take the tele too. I think a tele would cut through the mix with no effort while a les paul would need a booster.... TELE FTW....lol

[arpeggiosfromhell666]

you gotta love the tele!

[sergiozc]

@arpeggiosfromhell666 ... yup, and its a twangy country guitar too! ..

[TheSchoolsux345]

ill take the les paul

[fatpigiam]

nice playing.

[archenemylover1]

where did you get the backing track???????????

[StreeTRacR008]

Damn man, I just love this playing style to death, who would you say your main influences are?

[motlencore89]

@StreeTRacR008 his influences are most likely the playing styles of Jesus, and King!!!

[nahutabnahutab]

Very Slash influenced....I like (Y)

[victorescallier]

@nahutabnahutab how is this slash influenced at all? I'm not trying to be mean or anything but this does not resemble slashes playing at all to me

[wiindom]

got the exact same tele and sometimes I rather play that than my gibson lp studio .. dont know why xD

[pb999999999]

I like the les paul tone better.

[Folsumblues92]

i really enjoy your style man keep it up!

[jschwartz63]

Different sounds - but I'll take the telecaster. It dont mean a thang, if it ain't got twang! - Really fantastic playing, man!

[hannababalon]

I like the jaggedness of the telecater

[jp6l6]

This song is called "Hard times", it's from Ray Charles and E. Clapton plays it from time to time. I really Like it.

[fender7375]

With playing like that, you should own the real thing :)

[vespajedi]

Les paul is "Pipe and slippers" where as Tele is a "F**king hooligan". Nice playing. I own exact Tele, so that gets my vote!!

[kostas728]

great job! i wish i could play like that !!!

les paul rules!!!!!

[xXPTVXx]

no winner... both have great tones and action but the tele is my personal favorite

[keithsa41]

FIRST OFF YOUR AN AMAZING MUSICIAN.. Second I'd have to give the edge to the LP.. It looks so dam easy to play....plays like butter and melts in your hands

[victortolast12345]

I dont know if u speak spanish so here it goes:

nice job there.

How much did you pay for that edwards?

I really want one , does it have both seymours JB and 59?

Cya!

[victortolast12345]

muy bien que tocas caon.

Cuanto te salio esa edwards? estoy queriendo comprar una, que pastillas trae? seymours JB y 59???

un saludo!

[SSol28]

les paul oh sooo smooth

[julian121094]

les paul !!

[retzompro]

I agree with coffeeotz, u cant really compare the two guitars as there both so different.

[SuperJoshBoy]

t-e-l-e

[fs04pro]

you are missing a white falcon and youre done

[fanofthemusic1090]

very DIFFERENT guitars. I love both for sound, but Les Pauls are just too comfortable.

[narancor]

Edwards or Tokai and why?Please.

[skolofer]

TELE all the way

[doggfather123]

SUSTAIN

[mustangcobain65]

TELE!

[coffeepotz]

I don't know if it's fair to compare a Mexican Tele

with a Japanese LP.

[likablegenny]

Mmm...Les Paul Is Better

[jschwartz63]

This is great. Thanks for making this video. :)

[Taikamya]

Les Paul sustain kills Tele.

[chamann]

Mex Tele has definately more soul and character!

[wisesatyr72]

Bugs Henderson..Do I get a prize? smokin sound

[roloco15]

les paul is too betterrrr

[Igotbadjoints]

TELE IS BETTER..!

[tonydocstup]

awesome sound

[kuntucky123]

AWESOME MAN!!!! WAT GUITAR IS THAT?

[thomascompton800]

are you taking the piss --->>

[parisianUK]

Which backing track was this??

[parisianUK]

LOVE your style!

[orriblebob]

I got a Mexican Tele in Candy Apple Red. She looks and sounds GORGEOUS!!

[jimihendrixfan2008]

Fender FTW

[finepoint6]

true talent, keep rockin

[masc073]

Edwards sound better! Very good guitar!

[Trashtheplace]

YOU ROCK!

[rebel200794]

One of the best guitarists on Youtube.

[ChungandHuh]

les paul

[AL3XTH3LARG3]

I want a les paul so bad I cant stand it. Im shoping now for one

[DC2723]

nicely done

[abelcross]

les paul more cool

[TheCannabisKing]

ill take the Mexican tele over an AMERICAN tele anyday.

[Xevamir]

The Tele won for me, it just has a good bite to the music.

But the Les Paul sounded good too.

[psychedelichobo]

@Xevamir haha same here

[dannythepcfreak]

@Xevamir its the single coil sound u can coil tap a les paul but i'll murder anyone who does :D

[Xevamir]

@dannythepcfreak Murder people with a bland[er] sound, maybe.

[dannythepcfreak]

@Xevamir do u understand the tech behind the coils and how they work with polarity? humbucker deeper better mids! single coil better highs more crunchy and air filled

[Xevamir]

@dannythepcfreak If you're looking for a mellow guitar, get the Gibson. If you're looking for a guitar with soul, and bite; that can be heard in the mix... get the Tele.

[dannythepcfreak]

@Xevamir thats basically what i just said LOL i own a strat a les paul a ML and just got rid of an explorer

[Macintosh12Videos]

:OOOOOOOOO

Que bueeenoo!!!

________

:OOOOOOOOO

Great Gob!!!!

[marsmanic]

Great playing

[albinoblaksheep]

awesome

[gb3621]

gee, you make me cry.

[donottawaguitar]

oh ya

[NearlyAMusician]

I'm in for the Les Paul, but that's only because the backing track is quite slow. Any other more aggressive part would have totally made the tele shine without a doubt

[deathbymonopoly]

well done

[RoCkNRolLerLou]

Tele by far! Shitty japanise lp sounds to muddy..

[stratobiker]

They both sound feckin' awesome in your hands.

5*

SB

bien joue!

[selfhelpguy]

Even though they're not USA models this is one of the best comparison videos I've seen. Well played. I came into this with an open mind but I think the tele wins. No doubt the Les Paul sounds more full and a bit smoother but that tele just cuts through the mix and the twang gives it character. The Les Paul is good but to me it's almost too smooth and polished. But the tele sounds a lot more interesting. I think the best way to judge is to not look at the screen. Anyway, great vid. Cheers

[MrLocopor]

FELICIDADESSSSSSSSSS

[Shinobi342]

Can't really compare the two. The Edwards LP w/ Seymour Duncans sounds better than the MIM Tele, but when comparing the MIM Tele to the Epiphone LP the Tele wins hands down. Much more comfy and has better sound and playability in my opinion. If you change pups it might rival the Edwards too.

Great playing anyway!

[Arcziz92]

Both are fucking amazing <3

[darmek2001]

Man oh man. I gotta go with both. I have an Epi Paul with a custom wound Rocket pickup in the neck and a Duncan JB in the bridge and it sounds amazing. My Tele is the Nashville Deluxe which also sounds freakin great. Can't really go wrong with those two. Great playin'.

[MYJANZ]

cool dude 5/5 hope you could check my vids to

[smartiegirl96]

this is awesome

[spiderman34444]

those are 2 nice guitars u got and your realy good guitar player

[DistrustingToaster]

is that les paul an edwards? cos if it is, i have the exact same one with seymour duncan aged pickups.

[dejejs]

I vote LP,.. :D

[tomfitzi21]

Nirvana are fucking dead

[yeahhyo]

great playing man.

your solo on the LP makes me miss my SG, haha :P

[Flyin2hawain]

great phrasing and vibrato. you really bring out the potential in those guitars

[sunshinesmash2442]

you should do just a video of just the tele if you agree give this comment a thums up

[Biojere]

yo tengo la misma tele y no le puedo sacar ese sonido... tengo un marshall jcm 900 y un peavey classic 20... que equipo estas esando vos?

(i have the same tele and i can't take that sound... I have one marshall jcm 900 and one peavey classic 20 what amp are you using?)

[joaoarveres]

Japanese Gibson les paul don`t exist!!!

Probably u use a chinese réplica...

[machinsky108]

they do just not from gibson :)

[PEskater101]

TELECASTER for sure

[ganstamannirvana93]

I liked the Tele alot more. Never been a fan of LP's.

[mustangcobain65]

That's because your a fan of Nirvana, so my guess is you prefer fenders over gibsons. I love Nirvana but it's funny I read your conversations because in fact my two main guitars is a Gibson Les Paul standard and Fender american tele, and I must say I give the edge to the Les Paul.

[ganstamannirvana93]

I'm actually not that much of a Nirvana fan(I made this account two years ago) anymore. I'm more into bands like Algernon Cadwallader and This Town Needs Guns. My favourite guitar is the Telecaster, it's fucking amazing.

[nadibs]

what amps do you use to each guitar?

the sound is great~
