Vintage 1956 Gibson Les Paul Custom Black Beauty Teaser Demo
Filed under: vintage les paul by:
Here’s a great condition 1956 Gibson Les Paul Custom (Black Beauty) which I will be posting for sale soon on eBay. It is not perfect as it did get played but it is way cleaner than I’ve ever seen for one of these. Note the California “Cal” Girl pink lined case in the backround. From what I gather there were less than 500 of these made that year and less than 1000 total of this model ever made between the prototypes in 1953 until the end of 1956 (they changed to Humbucking pickups in 1957). Send me a message (through my channel page link…just click on my name or avatar) if you are interested. Most of this demo was with played on the “Burn” channel of my Fender Super Sonic amp and I vary the amount of gain (distortion) by changing the amp settings…I start with everything set at 5 (except the volume which was about 3) and then increase everthing as the video goes on and also by “playing” dynamics (how hard I hit the strings) and with the volume and tone controls on the guitar…when I say “treble” position, I mean “bridge” and when I say “bass” position, I mean “neck”. I play it clean at the very end to show that off as well…this guitar is awesome!
I sell lots of used guitars and basses (both here and on eBay…same name there…100% positive feedback) and I’m a dealer for the Mbrace stands and also Thomastik-Infeld strings. Let me know if there is something you want/write me if you’re interested…use the send a message link on my channel page.
Also…Guitars Wanted as I’m always looking for more guitars…I buy/sell/trade ‘em.
The guitar is plugged straight into my same old rig (no effects at all)…a Fender Super Sonic combo with an Avatar 2×12 all loaded with 12″ Hellatone 30’s. Any other questions, just ask…
Here is a link to my current eBay auctions if you are interested…

Thanks for watching!

Jammin’ with the cat..
This is demo of the Seymour Duncan SH-2 Jazz (neck) and SH-8 (bridge) pickups in my ESP LTD Viper 100FM for the Seymour Duncan Gear Experts Competition. Please excuse the video quality, it was all i have access to. Please also ignore the text at the top of the screen, i didn’t realise it would appear until it was too late. Enjoy!
thanks to everyone for viewing this, i didn’t think it would get as many plays as it has. Please check out my new project at www.myspace.com/newblackaus

“Nola” was composed as a ragtime piano piece in 1915 by Felix Arndt. Check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amMz6AAKE4Q for a version of Liberace performing the piece on piano in 1969.
The arrangement I recorded here, though, is the one by Les Paul — see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yzf7Ux9Q6iQ for the classic 1950s recording. Les Paul recorded the high-pitched lead guitar part by speeding up and slowing down the tape, so I used the same effect here. The lead guitar was recorded at half time and sped up 200% to give it that classic Les Paul sound. (The other guitar tracks were recorded in real-tempo, with no speeding.)
NOTE: For some reason the lead guitar video freezes toward the end of the clip. I believe this is due to a bug in Final Cut Express — couldn’t figure out why it was happening.

pseudo documentary in the d. wishman kind of style, which foregrounds the construct of the movie. this is a 16mm film we shot in 2002, using plusX and fast ektachrome to play up the duality of the studio/darkroom. great work by the personality formally known as b.j. daniels. sorry the guitar is so uninspired.
