  • It's not without it's little dinks and wear, making it all the more beautiful. Great playing as well. I'm curious, does it have the famous fat 50's neck?

  • @kalejut no 50's neck is as fat as they try to tell you at the gibson custom shop!

  • 1:43 - 2:37

    5:05 - 5:40

    What songs are these? I would love to learn that!

  • @BassBumpin108

    the first one is ANNA, which i posted in another video because of many requests. the other one is "Frühling", composed by Michael Fuchs (RIP). No recordings or tabs on that.

  • almost always the new epiphone and some old gibson does the neck to close to the strings, so when you play without amplifier it sounds terrible.. Therefore you gotta get hold on a good gibson from back in the days, becous when you get one you got the best piece of wood you ever can buy for money, and entertainment ofcourse.. likewiese ofcourse with epiphone, it's all about the crafting, same with the virgin stratt.. sounds terrible if you get one that is made bungled..

  • I love that guitar, i got short fingers, and that slim neck is perfect for my kind of playing, just love those old Gibson, also there is a custom wine-red epiphone that got likely about the same sound like this, with that slim neck, hard to get thought but when you get hold on one you'd never let it go.. Like Mike Rogers in MMEB his songs is shit nowdays is bad due change of brand, never do that, btw the gold top deluxe is Ok to, but it's abit blurry and the strings is to close to the neck.. :(

  • they just dont make guitars like this anymore :(

  • Beautiful tone and great playing.

  • I wish I had a guitar like that...

  • Actually, Black Beauty is just a nickname for the Les Paul Custom.

  • @PBANDSNOW

    Sounds like a c major chord shape, the fretted notes moving from 3rd fret to 5th, to 10th.

    I know this, because i wrote something using exactly the same damn chords.

    Darnit :p
