Christopher Guest Gifts a 1955 Gibson Les Paul to Julian Lage 

you're a jazz guy

You also need to be as good as Julian Lage.

@@ZillianZilch having richer friends is definitely easier than that 😂

@@sydrose13 Very true! 🤣

You ain't lying

"I don't hear anything".

Better LATE than never!

I may sound crazy; but i put some fishman fluences on one of my LPs. I get PAF tones, and p90 tones when using the different voicings with the push pull pots. Vintage gear is great; but there are so many great pickups on the market right now.

@@nickp440 funny you say that because Im going to get a guitar with P90's that I'm going to swap them out for noiseless. If it were normal single coils I probably wouldn't because there's a certain sound I kind and as good as they've gotten, I haven't heard any that do what I want. Since I've never used P90'S, I don't have that bias, and they produce an obnoxious amount of 60-cycle hum. I had intended on going with Mojotone Quiet Coils; I had them in a Strat I sold years ago and they were the best sounding ones I've heard, prior to that I would have said DiMarzio Area VVs. I worked on a guys Reverend Dirt bike royale that had them in it (mojo's), a 50s in the neck and a hot in the bridge. In a million years I'd never even consider active pickups, but I worked on a PRS that had Fluence classics HBs, and was REALLY impressed. The PAF sound was a bit Treble heavy, but nothing a properly voiced tone control couldn't roll off well. The vintage clear sounded great, and single coil certainly sounded closer to a single coil than any traditional split humbucker would, maybe one of the Fralin Unbucker or Sunbucker, but there you're trading off the humbucker sound. I didn't even know they had P90 Fluence until a friend of mine was talking about the Greg Koch set. That surprised me because he was always a "vintage only" guy to the point of occasionally getting into douchebag territory with all of it. I haven't tried em yet but I trust his opinion, even with the douchebaggery. I'll likely go with them.

@@DMSProduktions with most things, indeed.

@@timwhite5562 and they make a rechargeable 9V back plate if you decide to go with active pickups. I have the fluence modern humbuckers. the tones i get from them are satisfying as hell

More like a Lesdaivarius

Well done there...

Look who's wrote on it though.

@@jernwatson2882 I don't care if it was Les Paul himself.

Would agree if it wasnt already a signature on the headstock. Id love to have Les's signature on my guitar

Stop it, Mr. Paul! How dare you make my guitar five times more valuable!

99.99% of the time I'd agree. But look who signed it. This thing has some very interesting history

I guess he was not carrying a spray paint with clear coat along with him.

@@spider7venstring What an amateur.

@@JohannesLabusch Ahh i missed that, lol. I thought Chris signed it!

But it goes TO 11! ELEVEN!!!

It looks to be a signature from Mr. Les Paul himself to Chris. Not a signature from Chris to Julian.

Sadly, it has become one due to it being used as such. Language changes over time.
