Les Paul on Django

By: admin
Published: December 22nd, 2011

Les Paul talks about Django Reinhardt and shows a Selmer guitar that he says was given to him by Django. This is possibly the guitar that Charles Delaunay took to America for Django in 1946 but was damaged in transit.

Les Paul helped Naguine and Babik Reinhardt when they were virtually pennyless after Django died. It has been claimed that this Selmer was given to Les by Naguine after Django died but if he (Django) really did own this model, it does not show any signs of having been played. Selmer No. 503 was the guitar Django used during the last few years of his life and that is in a museum in France.

Gibson 1957 Les Paul Goldtop VOS

History
“A truly magnificent instrument with its natural mahogany back and neck, while the top is in gleaming gold with contrasting ivory trim.” — Original Gibson advertisement, circa 1955

By 1957, Gibson’s evolving Les Paul model guitar had already undergone several key modifications that would remain as the foundation of the iconic version known around the world today as the Les Paul Standard. But while the addition of the new Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece one year earlier had greatly improved the overall functionality of the Les Paul, nothing would compare with the addition of Gibson’s pioneering humbucking pickup in 1957.

At the direction of legendary Gibson President Ted McCarty, Gibson engineer Seth Lover began working on a tone circuit with hum-cancelling capabilities sometime in 1954, applying for a U.S. design patent — hence the name “Patent Applied For,” or “PAF” — on June 22, 1955. By early 1957, the standard double-coil version of the humbucker pickup had begun to appear on Gibson ES-175s and ES-350Ts, and eventually on the Les Paul Model Goldtops of the same year.

Body
Aside from the pickups, the basic specifications of those 1957 Les Paul Model Goldtops remained the same. There were, however, several minor cosmetic variations that made the 1957 version significant in the development of the Les Paul, the most noteworthy of which was the placement of the inlaid, pearl-cut Gibson logo, which was moved closer to the top edge of the headstock. Additionally, 1957 was to be the last full year of production for a Gibson model with a Goldtop finish. The popular color would not adorn another Gibson guitar until 1968.
Famous Players
The 1957 Les Paul Goldtop was also the model used famously by Duane Allman during the formative years of the Allman Brothers Band and his early session work, including his work with Eric Clapton (Layla sessions), the Allman Brothers Band’s legendary Fillmore recordings, as well as their first two albums — a body of work considered by many to be one of the most important in the history of rock and roll.

Near-perfect Recreation
Today’s 1957 Les Paul Goldtop from the Gibson Custom Shop is a near-perfect recreation of the original instrument, in all of its original brilliance and historical magnificence. The body features Gibson’s traditional hand-carved maple top and solid, non-weight relieved mahogany body. The headstock is made from Holly head veneer, as opposed to fiber, just like it was in 1957, and the vintage-style tulip tuners are mounted in a straight line, also as they were on the original. The 24 ¾-inch scale length neck is made from one solid piece of mahogany, and attached to the body using a long neck tenon — one of the Les Paul’s more distinguishing characteristics of the 1950s. The neck is topped by a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard outfitted with acrylic trapezoid inlays matching the size of color of the originals. Of course, two of Gibson’s legendary Burstbucker pickups deliver all the subtle variations of true, classic humbucker tone by using historically “unmatched” bobbin windings and Alnico II magnets. The guitar’s Antique Gold finish also matches the hue of the original model, giving this Custom Shop model the accurate and distinct appearance of this traditional Les Paul. Other historical appointments include CTS potentiometers, bumble bee capacitors, rolled crème-colored fingerboard binding, single-ply thin binding around the body, and period-correct switchwasher and jackplate. The 1957 Les Paul Goldtop comes either a V.O.S. or Gloss finish, and comes with the standard Gibson Custom case and certificate of authenticity.

Singlecut Shootout: Chinese Les Paul vs American Les Paul vs Dean EVO w/ Mesa MARK V

By: admin
Published: November 18th, 2011

In this video we compare a Chinese Les Paul Custom vs 1991 Gibson Les Paul Custom (all Mahogany body) vs 1993 Gibson Les Paul Standard vs Dean Evo. The amplifier being used is a Mesa Boogie Mark V with a Rectifier cabinet using Vintage Celestion 30’s. We used a SURE Beta 58 for recording and hopefully YOUtube won’t compress it too much. We are no Rob Chappers or Phil X (both of whom you should subscribe to on youtube) but we give it our best shot to give you a idea on the different sounds from each guitar. PLEASE leave us your feedback, opinions, and questions! Remember, we are NEWBS at this so we know we did not play with perfect timing and there are some bum notes here and there but we are hoping you get a good comparison out of this if you are in the Market for a new single cut. I don’t want to sway your opinion but I will say that the Chinese guitar is NOT worth the $300. You then have to buy pickups, tuners, straighten the neck etc. and you still don’t have a guitar as nice as the Dean EVO, PRS SE or a decent Epiphone Les Paul. Thanks all and keep ROCKIN’!!!!!
