I have had many les Paul's over the years and currently have a few, but I picked up a mod collection red/black back gold top 70s deluxe with P90s, and it is the meanest, growling guitar I have ever owned. I have the 60s pickups in a 60s SG, and they are nice, but nothing like the P90s. Even my ceramic pickup Les Paul's don't compete. I don't know if it is the solid, ultra heavy body and massive 70s deluxe neck, coupled with the gold top, but whatever it is, it is magic. Everyone who touches it loves it immediately. Sometimes you just get a good one. Great video.
Just bought a 60s. Fell in love at the Gibson Garage in London a few weeks ago. The neck was just so comfortable for me. Had a 59 neck in my Lazarus, great guitar but just didn't quite suit me. Traded in a couple of Epiphone Les Pauls, a 335 & a Sigma acoustic a couple of weeks later to ease the pain on the credit card to walk out of a store with a 60s Unburst & a Satin 335 in vintage sunburst. They are both great, very happy & lucky to have them. The 60s is well worth saving for & probably underated or less desirable as everyone seems to hold the 59 in such high esteem. The 60s just blew me away, it felt like it was made to measure for me & could just produce every tone & sound I wanted, even weirdly, almost an acoustic sound. The range & possibilities from the tone & volume knobs are endless.
Love this shoot out! Hats off John and Zach!!! yes!!!! Keep this format up, it ROCKS! Personally, I was a fan of the Gold top with the P90’s, but damn they all sound so friggin GOOD! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wonderful playing all you guys and great demo! I love how the mids really "ring" with that crunch or light OD thanks mostly to the 24 ¾ scale length. All 3 LPs are great, you cannot go wrong. I'd prefer the LP 60s, its sound had something different.
The 50s with P-90s gets my vote. Would have like to have seen an LP Special or Junior included. I'd like to have seen how these two lower mass guitars compared to the heavier Standards.
I'm a 50s guy, I own an R8 for that reason. You can play different guitars but I always settle with the 50s. The P-90s have their bite and are mean in a good way, making it stand out very well. You do need both, agreed. One Les Paul is blasphemous lol. My Les Paul with P-90s is the Special and I love it too. You need TV Yellow in your collection is a must. It's like Gulden's mustard on a hot dog.
My favourite was the Goldtop P90! If you combine two of them then it would be the Goldtop with the Sixties one... But as you say with all of them playing is really marvelous! All the Les Paul's sounded really good, but it is hard to beat a P90 Goldtop...
Just about to buy a gibson LP standard ..but I m afraid of the headstock breaking , I red hundreds of comments about that problem..😔😔😔. I have fender MIM and want a second guitar....
Don't worry too much about it! If you're buying it to play it, definitely don't worry about it. Just common sense - transport in a hard case, don't knock it around or drop it. Don't lean it up against chairs or couches where it can fall over. It's a vulnerability of the headstock shape but it doesn't magically break, it has to do with user error when it happens.

@@TheTrollMastah ok thanks , I red a comment when the man said that the headstock just " exploded" while the guitar was on the stand .....but was just one comment , from other at least 300 of people who said their headstock broked !!
@@Ouzo66 Lol well I own 2 Les Pauls and a few Gibsons, and I just bought a Cherry Red 50s Les Paul, nothing like that has ever happened to me. In fact, my friend knocked over my first 2013 Les Paul Standard and the headstock didn’t break or anything
I think the 61s are the best production pups end of sentence. I don't have a 50s with humbuckers, but I have the other two and love them both . . . but I think those 61s are sleepers and future classics. I'm actually going to put new p90s in the goldtop. And yes I think you're more a part of the music in this format. There was a time when the backing track was so low it sounded like you were playing jazz over something else and then swapped backing tracks lol So I think your playing has already become much more oriented to the jam than, say, a couple years ago, but this configuration helped even more. Almost gave the illusion you guys were in the same room . . . which is my gimmick, so stay in your lane lol jk
I have/had the Gibson 50's & 60`s LP standard and I no longer have the 60's. 😉I have a Gibson LP JR and love the sound of the dogear P 90! LP standard gold top P 90 will be my next Gibson.
