For the final piece that I purchased from the MOD collection two weeks ago - I got the Lean, Mean, Green Machine of an R9 officially known as "Croc-o-melon" on the Gibson box. This interesting green gloss top 1959 Les Paul Reissue has an open pore satin back finish and a really interesting pickup set known as the Gibson P94. I've never had a guitar with dedicated P94R / P94T pickups - only the Les Paul Push Tone that gave you the option to swap these in. I've got to say - I was really impressed by the tones of them in this guitar much more so than on the push tone!

Guitarist and master producer Gordie Johnson (Big Sugar, Grady, Snakes of Central Texas) is a HUGE P-94 guy - and his tone is monstrous. He has a signature Gibson P-94 equipped SG that was a Canada-only release (it was actually the original “SGJ” as a pun on his initials, before the lower end SGJs of the mid-2010s). You should see if you can get your hands on it to document someday, although it’s pretty rare.

@TOOLFortySixand2 Год назад

Excellent top ! The green makes the flames pop so much . Kind of looks like an anaconda burst without the black border . Keep up the great work Trogly !

@sgt.grinch3299 Год назад

P-90s are my favorite pups, but these new 94s are nice too. This guitar sounds good. It has some twang.

@davidburke2132 Год назад

P-94s aren’t new… they’ve been around for decades already.

@voornaam3191 Год назад

Yeah, this is a bloody expensive guitar, and your conclusion is twang. Many people refuse to say more than a oneliner. This is what you end up with. Next model has twang boom, I reckon?

@davidburke2132 Год назад

One of my favourite guitars is a Hamer USA with Seymour Duncan Phat Cat pickups (which are their version of the P94). Back in the day the Phat Cats were better in my opinion than the true P90s that Seymour Duncan were making, probably because the SD P90s at that time used ceramic magnets whereas the Phat Cats used Alnico.

@jonathanhudak2059 Год назад

This is one of my favorite looking Les Paul's that you've documented in a while Austin! I love that color green and the nice glossy top and the green back and sides as well, looks amazing! I only wish they would have done a gloss finish on the headstock and put the silk screen Les Paul logo on it. I wasn't as crazy about the white knobs but I could live with them because everything else works so well. Surprised at how nice the P94 sounded, something different. If money Was No Object I definitely would be grabbing this one for myself!

@pauldavis6356 Год назад

Love your attention to detail - you show every pro & con on the example that you have. I love the white speed knobs, however I agree with you that the plastic parts should be black, to match the head stock. Beautiful finish on the top.

@donscudiero534 Год назад

p-94's rock! i had a neck version matched with a seth lover in a full hollow guitar and that was probably the best vintage toned guitar ive ever heard in 40+yrs of playing. and yes they took overdrive very well.

@cyrilgleiman7202 Год назад

like a sour apple jolly rancher

@markbaum9615 Год назад

Sour job soldering as well Gibson

@mikecarbone828 Год назад

Salutations Austin! Nice guitar! I really like the green finish! I tried to purchase an Emerald Green Flame Top Les Paul a couple of years ago, but ended up getting ripped off, and the guitar never arrived, fortunately I didn’t lose too much cash in the process, but I am extra cautious about ordering online nowadays, so it was a good learning experience. This was a good demonstration of the P-94’s too. Thank you for posting these videos! Please have an excellent and awesome day! ☀️✨🎸

@paulburton5150 Год назад

I put a Toneriders P94 in the neck of my Vintage vs6/sg and it sounds awesome. P94's are a great option for getting some different tones and extra bite out of a humbucker routed guitar

@duanewelsh5611 Год назад

Yes black plastics would look better. Pretty sad the wiring on the pots just "falls off"

@georgeeaklor3442 Год назад

I’m kinda a new fan of yours and have enjoyed every one of them and now I’m going back to see the videos of the past… I’ve always been a Green Guitar fan and had a 69 Univox Coli (335 style) that was labeled Ponderosa Green… But I’m really liking the Greens Like this one and many of the other Greens you’ve done demos on… I’ve owned Gibsons, Fenders along with my Univox, that were all in the mid 60’s thru the early 70’s, but traveling around North America, doing some Military tours and just doing my thing, I sold them off, 😢… Now I’m just playing my Lagg Tramontane T66ACE at home, which I can say I’m enjoying this guitar for the price I paid cause the past owner didn’t know how nice it was… Have a great day and year… I’ll be looking for a new video today… 👍🏼☮️ Thanks for taking the time and effort to give these awesome videos, even though I couldn’t touch the case, more or less own one now, but it’s nice to Christmas Wish…🙏🏼

@sweetdrahthaar7951 Год назад

Some of the most amazing guitars I’ve ever seen I have appeared on this channel. Thanks👍🏻

@RokDAWG1 Год назад

I am definitely feeling that guitar! Gibson needs to make more like that! It sounds so good!

@danmc_2783 Год назад

Really thought you were going to say at the end that you were going to keep this one as your own personal player guitar. Gorgeous piece

@picksalot1 Год назад

That is a very nice guitar, from its beautiful top, to the excellent sounding P94 pickups. I think the resonance of it acoustically is being captured by the pickups, and is adding to the richness of its tone. The guitar might look even better if it had a green Truss Rod Cover. I'd be tempted to ask Gibson if they could do that for you. It would make the satin Headstock look extra cool if it matched to top.

@rumbletruck1 Год назад

That is one of the best looking Gibsons that I’ve ever seen. Gorgeous!

@SkarrKrow Год назад

I think the closest thing to P-94's that are widely available are Seymour Duncan Phat Cats. I've got one in the neck of my 2010 Epiphone Wilshire Pro.

@MrDoobie12286 Год назад

The gator skin on the pickups is a common leatherette material you can buy easily online. I’ve used it to cover a couple of amp cabinets. Looks cool on an amp, cool to see it on a pickup.

@kellyhinkelman8591 Год назад

I put the candy apple dark blue suround in several passes lightly to my taste to break up that much grn ,on flame top turned out paradise .gold hats.

@jimilee459 Год назад

Wow, man that is an awesome guitar, and those pickups, amazing. I’m not a green guitar guy, but I would definitely own that one. The treble bleed is for when the volume is rolled down, you don’t lose and treble. Normally, it would get a little bassy when the volume is rolled back.

@vernonhoover1387 Год назад

That is a cool r9 Les paul.i really dig it!I dig the cool, green case.agreed on glossing the headstock

@ericolson326 Год назад

I have an Epiphone Nick Valensi (The Strokes) signature Riviera with Gibson P-94s. They aren't a quite as snappy sounding as I'd like, but that's probably the semi-hollow body softening them a bit.

@darvinclement3250 Год назад

Love the sound of those pickups! Very nice looking guitar as well. Two thumbs up.

@guillermodelnoche Год назад

I’m rather astonished at the finish work from Gibson at any of their price points. I’d expect so much more. Beautiful top on that guitar!

@Reign_In_Blood_963 Год назад

You know what they say, "If you want Gibson quality, get something else".

@@Reign_In_Blood_963 that’s hilarious!

@stuartmiller7419 Год назад

Gibson are their own, best advert for something else - especially their own Epiphones!

@scottbart7891 Год назад

I have a 96/97 Gibson Les Paul Studio that came stock with P-94 pickups and It rocks. I have been searching for more Gibson P-94 to replace in son of my other guitars

Croco-Mello-Tron ...I love the total package ...The only thing might be the knobs ...black or even cream or gold...The PU rings too

Wow, beautiful guitar.

i like the pink case inside because it actually makes it look like the inside of a watermelon. great episode!

@JCHAS333 Год назад

I bought a cheap Oscar Schmidt 335 copy from a local music store in my area....Previous owner put P94s in it....I love that guitar...I have yet to see one with the original humbuckers in person I want to play one to compare it.

@rexrathtar3893 Год назад

It's a cool guitar. Funky to have the alligator-skin effect on the pickups and the top is incredibly striking. The dings and tooling marks are a "feature".

@MrJamescord Год назад

Great clean and distorted pick up sounds! Black plastics = a keeper, upgrade the tuners! Love the green top and green case.

@masteronone2079 Год назад

Those stark white pickup surrounds just hurt. The headstock is awful, the truss rod cover is gross. Apart from that I like it, yep! even the croc skin pickups (No one ever said I suffered from good taste). Sounds great.

@jameshughes6049 Год назад

Great color & awesome top.

@AxelAlexK Год назад

That's pretty much a dream guitar for me. I love green and woodgrain. Beautiful guitar. I'd love to record at home with that thing.

@markcheetah4960 Год назад

I agree 100%. Green is my favorite. I'd never gig with that thing... I'd baby it.

@AxelAlexK Год назад

@@markcheetah4960 I'm just a casual at home hobbyist but I couldn't imagine gigging with a les paul considering how heavy they are...it'd definitely be a home studio guitar for me.

@martinclayton7260 Год назад

I want that so much! I love green guitars, and that would be perfect for me. I'd change all the white plastics, and the machineheads, but that's about it.

@paradiswest4395 Год назад

I totally dig the guitar. Sounds great, looks awesome!

@mattzupp8304 Год назад

Those white knobs are making it pop so much. Looks amazing

@robertwells6454 Год назад

Sounds good I'm a P 90 fan so I like. On the fence with the color but to each there own.

@johnkirk6980 Год назад

That guitar is gorgeous, love the open pore back with the gloss top love green guitars too

@jimwguitar3002 Год назад

12:19 it’s a beauty P94 sound great. I don’t know why Gibson doesn’t do more colors like this on USA model’s

@jimmyjames2022 Год назад

Wow the Croco-melon / Mellodile / Mellogator really inspired some great tones out of you! Like to see satin necks but with pore filled, it's faster.

@voided76 Год назад

with the lifton case I thought it was watermelon bubble-yum gum

@jayalderson Год назад

Why do I love this guitar!! I am usually not keen on green! Love the look and sound.

@lasombra_br Год назад

I need to get a P-94 neck to put on my SG!! I think it'll pair great with a 57+ Classic

@Tigershark-qy2gq Год назад

Breathtaking!!!! I bought an IYV from Vietnam in that colour a few years back. If and when Gibson puts out something affordable in that colour, I'd be on it like a fat kid on cake.

@samadams1076 Год назад

I really dig this LP! great tone, does need black plastic

@alpeterson Год назад

New drinking game, now that Trogly knows the word, you take a shot every time he says “chatoyant”.

@wadeguidry6675 Год назад

Nice top! The pups sound really vintage like. I'd rock it.

@JV-rx3ov Год назад

I'm a big fan of the P-94's. I got a set in my 2008 Gibson Les Paul Push Tone. It came with a set of Burstbuckers & P-94's. I usually rock one of each in mine but I do love the pair of P-94's together. Love the color on this guitar. I've got to see where I can get a set of alligator skin covers for my pickups. EDIT: Having to put a piece of tape on a solder joint to get it to work properly on a nearly $7000 guitar is ridiculous! That infamous Gibson QC strikes again.

@NHfiddle Год назад

Love those P94s, they sound better than an H'bucker in all areas. A big fat P90 I'm sold, thanks Austin

@bobsmoot8454 Год назад

What a flame top No cross graining. I’d love to hear the difference between the P94s to P90s. A gorgeous instrument to say the least

@nickspitzley8539 Год назад

I think more people would use them in an SG. You'd get a lot of twang and bite with with a slightly more rock-'n'-roll look tone than a fender but could still hang as country guitar.

@papasmamas1 Год назад

It would look so cool with a mother of pearl poker chip and truss rod cover.

@shaunw9270 Год назад

The green , the flame top , the satin back , superb combination 👌

@tjsr Год назад

That is an incredibly cool colour for a guitar that screams unique, but to hell with that price tag. If I ever see one like this at an affordable price range though, yep, definitely my kind of thing.

@larrynoe6162 Год назад

I have the Lee Malia signature Epiphone with a Gibson P 94 in the neck. I love the sound in the Bridge also great guitar.

Oh my god that finish is my DREAM finish. It's so beautiful. I wish I could afford something in that color with that sort of top :(

@family-accountemail9111 Год назад

The inspector was R Justice - sounds apt for a quality control job. The position of the 15 fret inlay looks off?

Swap the white plastic for black and put on some other tuners. Color is sick 🤘🤘

@bobsmoot8454 Год назад

I wish Gibson would reissue the Alnico 5 Staple single coils. I had thought switching out my humbuckers on my ES175DAW to P94s so if they aren’t available that sucks

Man, that's a keeper.

@aornic Год назад

This looks like my PRS 594 in Les Paul form. Love that finish.

@jubei7259 Год назад

Those P94's rip. I'd definitely swap black plastics in for the white & stick some vintage Kluson tuners in there though. An R9 should have proper tuners (imho of course).

@MrScott-go6 8 месяцев назад

This guitar as a 'Custom' with 3 pickups. Have the middle a 'P94' pickup, wired to combine with the bridge (or not) & a coil split option ......
