Gibson Joe Bonamassa Les Paul - Bonamassa Burst - Nevada Music UK

[sipa2125]

Maybe it stands for Rhythm and Treble?

[SuckYourMumsHairyToe]

no joke ill give you 7 grand for it, inboxx?

[Jonwsm]

No, he's right. Rhythm and treble. Well done that man.

[Jonwsm]

Or is it regular and trem spacing? Like 490r and 498t.

[Jpalmieri4]

I believe r is rhythm, as in the neck pickup, and t is treble, the bridge pickup haha

[vaibzzz123]

sexy finish

[MrUg30]

duane allman was the first to string his guitars this way.does this guitar have the long neck tenon? anybody know.thanks.mr ug30

[Marcel3540]

i want sex with that guitar

[Toolman919]

Wrapping the strings over the tailpiece does not lesson the tension on the strings. Tuning to pitch requires the same tension on the string to bring it in tune. By wrapping the strings it does 3 things, 1) you can drop the stop bar down to the body which will creat more sustain 2) more string length = less effort to bend 3) less degree of angle from saddle to stop bar. Or, machine (purchase) spacers for under the saddle mounting bolts for solid contact to the body = more sustain.

[Goodjust]

On the Gibson humbuckers; the R = Rhytm and the T = Treble. Refering to the togle switch position

[lralbrecht]

a bit bright.

[OliTheGuitarist]

That burst is amazing

[CampfireHedphaz]

Always like the vintage sunburst looking LPs, but there are sooooo many names for it, makes it difficult to pull up pictures!

[annenberg25]

what pedal is that?



[GuitarBlues3]

@annenberg25 It's a Way Huge Pork Loin, one of Joe's favorite pedals.

[RelaxNplay64]

Awesome burst and great tone to boost

[bradb615]

THE R AND T STAND FOR RYTHM AND TREBLE LIKE ON ALL LES PAUL TOGGLE SWITCHES,GIBSONS NAMES FOR THE NECK OR REAR PICKUPS

[riquelme64]

@0.1-0.21

[johhnyringolevio]

the guitar that joe is playing in the audio isn't even his signature model

[liondancedrummer]

how much is this guitar???

[xXsimun007Xx]

@liondancedrummer like 1000$

[liondancedrummer]

@xXsimun007Xx but it says it 2699 pounds on their website could you please tell me where you found it for $1000

[StephenFiorentini]

What a gibson should sound like.

[intrsoul]

What's going on with the saddles? Are those GraphTec on the top three strings and steel on the bottom 3? I'd actually thought of trying that once (best of both worlds) but talked myself out of it :(

[Xidkwhat2callmyselfX]

not insulting you

but in the video description

the T & R for the the pickup position stands for treble and rythm

Treble=Bridge

Rythm=Neck

[nikgottheblues]

Joe would shit a brick if he seen this cat playing his SIG LP thru a Fender amp.

[cerebrix]

@nikgottheblues nah, no he wouldnt. joe's a full on guitar nerd. he'd just be stoaked someone digs his guitar enough to buy it. we talked about it when i met him briefly. he seems to really get a kick out of the idea that he even has a sig. really humble guy, he wouldnt be bothered at all.

[SquirrelFromGradLife]

porn

[ROO2294]

I'm in love

[HolyGK]

True, I don't know why but the adjective " creamy " is the best word to describe his tone !

[warkilwar]

whats up with the strings over the tailpiece? 

[GuitarEd48]

a Dream Guitar! but I don't like the strings over the tailpiece :-(

[eydfinnhvidbro]

hvat kind of pedal is he using?

[npole2000]

2:17 Carlos is watching you...

[ta11438]

@brandonchasseur2205 with a dodgy bend, at first I thought Joe is human afterall and then realised it wasn't him playing at this point!

[SlashBigFan94]

I want that guitar!!!

[RockNRom1]

I j**k off at 3:19

[follonic100]

A tí se te perdona por ser el vendedor; no, en cambio, a un comprador que toque de una forma tan mediocre como la tuya...

[Kraydinhe]

Nice guitar. But im alover of Cherry :S

[SirMoonWalk]

why on the head there is a sign "Bonamassa" with one "n"?

[sandrasalamander]

@SirMoonWalk Maybe because that`s how it`s spelled:))

[hawg427]

How does the over the bridge method affect the Tone & sustain? I love his Blues playing.

[PoringPoiii]

What a tone man...I think I've got a boner D: ..

[RythmTR]

R mean rythm(neck position) and T mean treble(bridge position)

[JimmyPage968]

I never even knew Joe had a burst. You learn new things every day.

[rudewey]

es un palacio!!!!!!!!

[jimleak007]

Oh dayum, crazy tone...

[PichoAntonio]

will be a bonnamassa in epiphone?? please say YES "!!!

[jjcvk]

@PichoAntonio get rich...

[JeffKnight]

Awesome. Too bad, I can't afford one.

[masterbeat04]

es-150 on a les paul body

[Savatage420]

so this guitar comes with the strings over the bridge like that? or is that just how joe plays it

[MannyBlue65]

@Savatage420 That's how Joe does it, strings over the tailpiece. By doing this it lessens the tension on the strings and makes 11 gage strings feel like 10 gage strings and makes bending the strings a bit easier. He got the idea from Jimmy Page and Billy Gibbons.

[blitzistephens]

@MannyBlue65 by butting over the bridge it gives it great serstain but thanks for the info

[MannyBlue65]

@blitzistephens The strings over the bridge do nothing to improve sustain. It only relieves the tension on the strings. Sustain come from the type of strings being used. Larger gauge strings boost volume and sustain. The thicker the string is, the thicker the tone is. That's why Joe uses 11 gage strings, but thanks for the info.

[oilpit]

@MannyBlue65 it does lessen the tension, but it definitely doesn't make it feel like a whole string gauge down.

It's a pretty subtle difference...

[WoWintosh]

@MannyBlue65

Billy Gibbons? Damn, he uses .008s with a .007 high E, so thats extra light strings on a shorter scale, plus top wrapping, damn, there must be zero tension on his strings.

[Guitardude81597]

@MannyBlue65 how does it lessen tension?

[CalTamaDrummer]

@MannyBlue65 Also increases contact with the body and makes for better sustain and tone.

[DrEviscerator666]

It's sick how he captures the Beauty of the guitar without adding a Curly, Flamed, Quilted, AAA Maple top on it. It just has a normal maple top or it is just pure mahogany!

That burst looks beautiful with the hardware (Pickup rings, pups covers, knobs, washer, toggle cap, tuners, T.o.M, Tailpiece...)

[gwanksta]

DREAM TONE! oh my god! creammmyyyyyyyyyyyy

[gwanksta]

sounds like jimmy page...

[drivershigh29]

"R" might stand for "rhythm" and "T" for treble. Usually Burstbuckers are paired with a low output neck and moderate output bridge. Unless this guitar comes with coil tap.

[PBANDSNOW]

Looks nice...
