It’s not the country of manufacture that bothers me, I have a few Far East guitars, myself. It’s the need to have the Gibson name on the headstock. Call it what it is, after all, you Chibson owners say you can have them spec’d anyway you want, put TedPedraza on it, I’d have Chibson on mine, anything but Gibson, because it’s anything but a Gibson.

@tedpedraza8234 8 месяцев назад

@@BootleggerPhil and I do have one with my name lol. I had a music store owner tell me that I would never be able to afford a Gibson 59 Les Paul starting at $10.000, that was it. I was done with Gibson or any guitar that’s worth a house. Even if I had the money I still wouldn’t buy one I would buy a shit load of Chibson with Chibson on it.

@BootleggerPhil 8 месяцев назад

@@tedpedraza8234 That’s good for you Ted. I got no problem with my little Epiphone, plus a really hated 2015 Special, neither costing that much, about as much as a tricked out Chibson infant. Both great guitars & no defrauding involved. Don’t know where you’d get a 1959 Gibson Les Paul for $10k, unless you time travel back to the 20th century, or a house for that matter… But think of how many times you could have TedPedrazza put on a Chibson if you’d of had the good sense to invest $10k into what a 1959 goes for. Personally, I’m cool with the small tally of Gibson Custom & Fender Custom Shop guitars I’ve managed to work & pay for over the years, and buy a house, raise a family, put back into an honest economy whilst working in the music industry. So I’ll chose to play those hard earned and we’ll deserved guitars, with the three additional Far East guitars I could afford back in the early days of my life, all of them with their own names on the headstock (I don’t think I’m that hot, I have to have my name on a guitar for votes or laughs). You see Ted, it’s cool to party, but if you keep it down to a night or so now & then of juice & toot, you wont be frightened off by guitars that are worth having for life, because you’ll have something left of your money & good sense. If all you can part with is a few hundred at a time; you must be Mr. Blowit…

Chibson has gotten so good in the last couple of years that they should use their moniker Chibson on their products. I was so impressed in the professionalism of their recent builds, that I had my favourite builder, create a replica of a 2007 Les Paul Supreme. I own no less than 6 Chibsons, and all are comparable to north american guitar builders. The exceptions are the nut, and electronics, that use cheaper products. But remember the price difference from a real Gibson.

First let me say I love your intro, Cold Gin, that band has inspired more people to pick up a guitar than any other, but that's another story. I've been wanting a Gibson Les Paul Custom in alpine white forever, at least over 30 years. But every time I get serious I walk away. I just can't justify the price, now by the time you add tax they're over 6 K! Certainly not in my budget. So I bought a Chibson LP custom in alpine white. It played great right out of the box! I liked it so much I bought another in Cherry Sunburst, and then another in black just like the one you have in this video. All three came from my home state of NJ so it arrived in one day transit time from Fedex. The fit and finish on all 3 is just fabulous! The neck relief and string height was well within specs. Yeah the pick ups and tuners are not the greatest, but for me, my stage days are over, and playing in my music room they are just fine the way they are. At high gain you get some ring from the pick ups but I'm also too close to my amp as well so that may be part of the problem. I never purchased from Ali Express but you got me thinking. I purchased all mine on ebay, so far no disappointments. But like you said, email the seller before you buy. If they don't respond before the sale then forget about any response after they got your money. These Chibsons can get addicting! I've also purchased 2 SG's and a Flying V all in Cream White. I love that color! Only one SG was unplayable out of the box. Truss rod was way too tight. In about an hour I had it set up and playing great. Anyway, I love your honest videos on these guitars and please keep them coming. I plan to watch them all. So, do I still want a Gibson Les Paul Custom in Alpine White? ABSOLUTELY!! Maybe someday. But , for now I'm happy buying all my dream Gibsons at an affordable price. Let the sickness continue....

I had an '86 Custom brown burst waiting for me under the Christmas tree one year when I was a teenager, it was the best guitar I ever had I believe. The music store owner said to me and my Dad before he bought it, "Why do you want a Preacher's guitar?" still remember that and laugh sometimes :) It still had the PAF stickers on the mounting rings and only had minor buckle rash. These Chibby's look cool but I'd feel like I was a bit of a traitor for buying one in a way. Great review and nice looking axe.

I got a blue burst custom for my daughters first guitar, but I was surprised by it. With some work like some fret polishing and a new nut and some plastics swap it would be hard for most Gibson fans to know the difference. The pickups aren’t great but definitely good enough. I see these as a great way to tinker into something pretty cool and not spend a lot. Now I’m looking at a black custom chibson with p90s. Because I need to put an alnico staple neck pickup into the right guitar 😊 I have every other real les paul pickup combination p90s, humbuckers, three humbuckers. But I’m not about to spend 6k on a 54 reissue black beauty!

I got one last month (WILL COME UP ON MY CHANNEL LATER) with the same markings on the pickguard. It's a tiger maple top in a dark honey color. The fret ends are enclosed in the binding like that one. My first like that. Made it tricky, as it still needed frets leveled. Pups were ok, but I had planned to mod it before it arrived. 5 weeks. Took it 2 weeks to get out of China, which is what I normally see. That's a beauty. I avoid black as best I can cuz of the finger and arm marks. Constant battle to keep clean like black cars.

@johannbr 10 месяцев назад

The only thing that most of the manufacturers didn't understood yet is the distance from the logo to the D and G string tuner poles. There is a huge gap. If you look into the real thing, this is not the way. In fact all the 6 tuners should be at least 1cm higher.

@FultonStreetBeats 10 месяцев назад

They actually do it on purpose. So they do not meet the term "Exact" that is required to be considered a counterfeit. This is why if you really look everything is just a bit off. Taken as a whole its like 80% different. You can find one that's close in one area, but of in another's. Its not because they don't know, Its because they need to change it import them. This one is pushing farther than most, however next to a authentic Gibson the many many differences are obvious. Thanks for watching brother.

@peppesgabello 10 месяцев назад

I think that they just use the same headstock model for classic and custom models, since the normal gibsons like Slash or a 60/59 etc, they have bigger headstocks with that exact proportions, but the custom has the gibson logo starting closer to the D tuner and the whole headstock is a bit smaller. These variants also are common even in the original production, I think that in 1955 the logo was completely off centered, it started lower like the customs ones but with the headstock of a classic gibson so you basically had a lot of blank space at the top.

@peppesgabello 10 месяцев назад

@@k2rocksstl that problem is caused by the string coming with an angle from the nut to the tuners, they're not aligned like other headstocks such as PRS ones. Also the tuners are not staggered in height and the curve of the Gibson's headstocks is 17° if I remember correctly and it weakens not only the structure (in fact they brake quite easily on the scarf joint) but also improve tuning instability

I picked up an ES-335 and 'sadly' the fit and finish is better than the Gibson's hanging at the authorized dealer. Now I have it and it actually plays well and sounds pretty good. The only downfall is that I can never sell it. If doing this again, I'll request the Gibson label to not be added. I agree with your assessment: some of these are pretty good! Note: when I had my Chibson set up the tech did an amazing job but claimed the intonation is not perfect because of the length from the nut to the bridge. I haven't noticed any issues with the intonation - it sounds perfect all the way up the neck.

@Mcfly0856 7 месяцев назад

Great LP Custom Chibson you have there Lucky you!! LoL"

Thanks brother 🙏 you have no idea how much I like seeing you in the comments. Your one of the main reasons I started exploring the facts behind chibsons. Thanks man.

@ElvisPretzel-rv3bg 10 месяцев назад

No kidding! 😂 Thank you my friend you made my day!! I would have never figured that I was the reason you're going through these great Chibson's 😂......That is cool you are seeing what I see about how good these Chibson's are the thing is yours look way better I'm jealous as heck!! Lol"..... god o Friday dam the EVH and this Custom there unbelievable man... I can't believe how good they are built now mine are pushing 5 years old and I had to wait over a month for my two from my seller... I'm amazed how you're getting them so fast and they're not even close to being bad guitars at all there perfect and so nice looking...most the time when you just bought a run of the mill one in the past i seen only one out of ten coming in good now its looking like they're all being built perfectly You are so lucky man I want another bad! Lol" can't wait to hear these babies rock out I'll be watching for the jamouts 😂

Is this seller still available- how long did it take you to get it. I’ve been afraid because of coming from China. But I want a white sg custom and will never afford the real thing. I’d love if you could tell me best place to get.

@SquirrelDarling1 10 месяцев назад

I’m still kinda on the fence about using the Gibson logo. But instead of dropping several thousand on a authentic anything only to find out you don’t like it, maybe buy one of these. I did that with the Acoustasonic clone by IYV just to see if I liked it. Turns out I did and picked up a Fender Acoustasonic mim used at a good price. I might try one of these in the near future but doubt I’d buy a Gibson LP just because of the insane price. I did play my friend black beauty, but wasn’t overly impressed to save up and buy one, but to drop $300 on a good clone, yeah I could see that.

@BTR-xw4of 2 месяца назад

Any chance you can provide buyer details? I bought a Chibson off Ali and my luthier has only had to make minor changes - new humbuckers, toggle, and pick guard - 0 intonation. Am very happy with it for the price all up. Thanks for this video.

@Defekcija 5 месяцев назад

I am blown away by these chibsons! I've spent so many days looking for a somewhat reliable online store based on reviews and youtube videos and I feel like I'm making no progress at all. Can you please share the store link? I wanna get a silverburst. Cheers

@AndrewAHayes 10 месяцев назад

I have heard of them coming with fret nibs but this is the first one I have seen, I can see them starting to punch the serial number on the back of the headstock instead of CNC cut serial numbers. I wouldn't mind one with a genuine Evertune fitted at manufacture, I would probably have to ship them the part though and getting a well routed and fitted one would be a coin toss. What do you think the purpose of the fake shipping number was?

@FultonStreetBeats 10 месяцев назад

I have no clue. But with them disappearing from AliExpress and giving me a fake tracking number. It was a bit scary. lol

@tostrmofo6686 10 месяцев назад

Happened to me before. I think they want you to believe they shipped immidiately so they can manufacture the guitar and send it out without you canceling the order. I'm dealing with Aliexpress sellers for almost 5 years now and this has happened multiple times to me. It also happened once, when I already bought the guitar but was still in talks with the seller how I wanted it costumized.

@MrWhiskeytangofoxtro 9 месяцев назад

Wow! Great channel, man! I have a thing for Chibsons and ‘lawsuit’ LPs. I might have missed it, or maybe you didn’t/can’t say, but can I ask where you got this one?

@FultonStreetBeats 9 месяцев назад

If I remember correctly AliExpress. But the seller disappeared

@GRBAquatics 10 месяцев назад

Very Cool, Thankyou. Amazing looking Guitar. Awesome Review. I don't think these are available to Australia, I think our Customs intervenes, probably for 'Counterfeit' reasons. Shame, as they appear to be very cool guitars. All the Best. Cheers

@FultonStreetBeats 10 месяцев назад

Thanks brother

@tbdog99 3 месяца назад

Don't know much about Chibsons, but I've read a few places that if you get one with nibs on the frets, you have a good one. It's a lot more work to build the guitar like that, so it's likely more work went into the build and you have a higher quality instrument. Who knows?

@kevinhuff4111 9 месяцев назад

I just wish they would get the headstock on the custom correct. I almost got one used ..but like this one..the truss rod cover is stubby short because they got the tunners too far back toward the nut end of the headstock

@wooliegeek 9 месяцев назад

I don’t know how to find and chat with a seller. I’m looking for a custom job. I want a 1980 Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion. But where to start?

@johnnyromero3336 10 месяцев назад

It looks really good! I cannot justify buying another Gibson Les Paul Custom at todays prices. Do you have a link for this seller? a White Custom might be worth picking up to go with my USA Black Custom. Thanks for the review.

@johnnydorsey650 8 месяцев назад

I would like to see you review a Neil Schon gold top Les Paul.I want that model and if Chinson can do it as good as this Black Beauty or the Ace Frehley model I will get one

how do you find a seller / builder that will custom make one to your specs? I would like one but I don't want a gloss finish on the neck

@FultonStreetBeats 3 месяца назад

I have been using Cathy Zhong For my custom builds lately. Amazing work. She can do just about anything.

@gscgold 3 месяца назад

@@FultonStreetBeats how has the fret work been from her work? comparable to at least a epi?

@FultonStreetBeats 3 месяца назад

Other than a polish, the frets have been fantastic with no sprout. Nice and level.

I've bought a couple off Aliexpress and the only problem I ever had was on one the frets were just a hair out of place. So I never could get. A 100% correct internation.

@7snap 8 месяцев назад

Very well produced video. I always wondered, if these guitars were labeled Epiphone instead of Gibson, would they be more legitimate to buyers. I bought a Epiphone Classic Custom Pro from Amazon that seems like it may have been an indirect purchase from Ali.

@FultonStreetBeats 8 месяцев назад

I have actually seen legitimate Epiphones with some of the same sellers. So very interesting idea.
