    Have a 2021 Standard 50's in Heritage Cherry and cant put it down. Absolutely love it even though Im only a living room/bedroom beginner. Late starter in my 50's
  • @reverb508
    Already have an R8, but this video convinced me that I really need a Junior.
  • @philc4520
    Excellent review & playing 😊👌🏻
  • @glaucosouza1971
    Do I need another Les Paul? No. Do I want another Les Paul? Of course!!
  • @rayfabris2512
    I got a 2021 les paul standard 50s in cherry burst and I love it in fact I'm getting ready to plug in after play for hours last night my so I'm going to ROCK 😮
  • @golfrick007
    I guess I'll go with the 60's bourbon burst because that's the one I have. I got it used at my local dealer so it already has some light Murphy lab aging.😊
  • @TheRycooder
    The special, 50’s P90’s and the 60’s killed it!!!! Close, could not pick one over the other! Great video!!!!
  • @terryoquinn8199

  • @keshin_martin
    Oxblood or 60s cherry on the Epiphone Les Paul Standards would be FANTASTIC
  • Have the Special and the SG JR from the original series next two guitars will be the 50s les paul and the 61 sg standard. Love thr original serie so much!
  • @dlewtweentorla1210
    Love my P90 Les Paul Standard. Also picked up a standard 50's when they came out late 2019, it is one hell of a LP! The humbuckers sound great and build quality is spot on. Even came very well set up. Seriously the best LP I've purchased in the last twenty years. Moved away from Gibson Guitars for a spell because of some issues, am very happy with the HUGE turnaround post 2019. The quality is back for sure. Some of my favs are my early 80's and although not 'correct' by 50's standards (haha pun there) do like my two mid 70's LP's. Then again they were the first and second LP I ever purchased new, so there is most likely a bit of bias there. Congrats to Gibson for getting it together and kicking everything up a much needed notch! As far as what guitar would I like from the video? Would have to be the TV yellow P90 Special. Always wanted one yet end up with something else. One Day soon hopefully. Cheers!

    I’ve owned the Junior and Special from the Original Collection as well as a 60’s Standard and found myself moving to the 50’s Standard in Tobacco… it hands down takes names later as in “kicks ass!” And then does so! But have to say, the growl of the dog ear P90 on the Junior and the simplicity… it’s just a perfect rock n roll guitar! Collectively though, I’ve owned nearly some 20 Gibsons over the years and have to tip my hat to the Original Collection… just can’t go wrong w/ any of them! Hands down the best Gibson’s I’ve played and owned outside of maybe Historic Reissues which… LOL… think Gibson should maybe toss me a bone and hook me up on a ‘58!!!😉❤️
  • @ereimul1444
    gotta love the new colour. my wife she's been rocking those Pelham blue for years. Now i have a reason to buy 2 Les Paul. The Pelham blue to match with her LP and the Fuchsia for me.always fancy the natural finish at the back for LP.
  • @azt3ca
