Those guitars in display cases owner will die eventually. And they will trickle back into the market... Keeping really clean specimens around for a long time. There are single collections with dozens of bursts per.... One with nearly 100 bursts.. In a single collection... .
@@ryans9029 Dirk Ziff's collection is the perfect example of Bursts being lost to musicians. Don't expect any of those guitars to even be seen by the public again. And that probably includes the "Beano Burst" - although no-one will admit it. The best instruments lost to musicians, because rich people like valuable things.
The one bad thing about Steve Lukather is not enough people in the world know about Steve Lukather. Amazing guitarist. so so very underrated for a man with such immense talent. There are big stars who the world *_THINKS_* are absolute guitar gods but most of them can only dream about being on the same level as Steve.
@@v.a.6742 Yeah and he's dead. Who else knows about Steve Lukather or his contributions? if not both? I doubt many people even knew that Van Halen also played on "Beat It" Steve is an unsung hero.
@@Rose.Of.Hizaki Hardly. He's one of the most well known in the business. After more than 1000 recordings he's definitely not underrated or something like that.
@@rolfjohnson3827 that Maybe so, but I know a lot of average joes that have no idea who he is even if they listen to TOTO. The business might know him. But the people outside dont
@@Rose.Of.Hizaki I think a lot of people who listen to music don't actually get into the musicians themselves. I like to dive in and find out who is playing what, what they look like, names, etc. It's like how sports fans know the names of their favorite players and whatnot.
THE “greatest guitarist on the planet”? I do not agree with that at all.he’s very talented bu5 there are others who whomp his ass. He’s not more soulful than Duane,jimi,beck,page,Clapton,Gary Moore,kossoff and not better than EVH
What a great guitarist! Every time I've seen videos videos or heard recordings he's just playing his ass off . Great chops, great sound , and he always means it when he plays. He's one of those guys who's always been an inspiration for me.
Conmovedor ver como dos hombres de la guitarra pueden disfrutar como niños de lo que más aman. Me recuerdan mis tiempos quinceañeros donde podía pasar horas haciendo eso. Estos dos no pierden esa esencia de niños.....los dos genios y cracks. Viva la libertad de los niños músicos!!!
Luke is a great guitarist! I bet he could make a $2000 Les Paul sound almost that good. It’s all in his touch, feel , phrasing & licks. If wishes were horses I’d like to see Luke and Gary Moore (RIP) play, that would’ve been cool. His Rosanna lake was short and fantastic and his plane on Boz Scaggs breakdown dead ahead was incredible too. I said hi to him at the house of blues where Steve Morris was playing in 1996.
Steve is a great guitarist and a very cool guy to boot.He is not full of himself like a lot of stars.The fact is he probably paid under a grand for the guitar back in the day.
I own both and I like the sound of a Strat....until it’s played right next to a Les Paul. The Fender is completely more ergonomic in every way.....but that Les Paul’s tone is killer!
Spettacoloooooooo due ragazzi che improvvisano alla grande insieme, questa è musica e improvvisazione, senza sentirsi degli dei della musica, anche se, se lo potessero permette senza problemi. Grandi🎸💪
Always miss seeing Steve when he's in town , love watching and listening to him.Steve is 3 years younger then me . I have a Les Paul that looks exactly like this but with tears rolling down my cheeks and head hung down ,I admit it doesn't sound even close to his, spent $400 on custom built pups and it's a lot better ,sweet tone ,but this will be what it is. good enough for me.
I SAY to this very day TOTOS FIRST RECORDS I LOVED THE MOST WE HAD A GUITAR PLAYER HE AND I WERE GOOD FRIENDS HE GOT BIG REAL BIG TOO BIG SO NEEDLES N PINS DRIVEING HIS OWN LIMOUSINE TO LOS ANGELES CHOPPING IT I SAID IAM QUitting this band you GUYS are nuts so luckley we got back and i quit JUST In TIME SCARFACE GOT POPPED IT'S LIKE YOU CANT DO THAT BULLCRAP NEVERTHELESS I NEVER SAW THEM CRAZY CATD AGAIN I GOT MARRIED COUPLE YEARS LATER MOVED TO PARADISE THAT GOT CRAZY TOO THATS ROCK N ROLL NICE LES PAUL. LUKE YOUR STILL KILLIN IT BROTHER
I wonder what it feels like...would love to do a blindfold test with a dozen different players and multiple LP's.....wd be interesting yes!?! Dude on Strat is legit as well!!! Who is that on Strat???
I've never played an original burst before but I thought it'd be interesting to throw this out there. Do people think they're "overrated" by rich players who big them up a bit too much and that the players are what make them sound so good, or do people think that original bursts are actually a cut above everything else? I'm a Telecaster/Gretsch guy myself but it'd be cool to hear what other players think.
Decent vid to show the difference in a genuine PAF tone vs a quality single coil tone.. would have liked both with equal amounts of drive, or both equally clean but very inspiring play goin on either way, it inspired me to tie a rope to the end of my standard and use it as a boat anchor because that made me realize how bad l really am...yea nice guitars but l always say its not the car...its the driver!
Jay Studio to be brutally honest, I think a nice amp plays a big part in the sound :) original 50s Les Pauls are very cool but there is a hype about them :) it’s not like every modern guitar is bad sounding compared to one :) and the price is better :) one thing that really baffles me is the guys who go crazy over original Klon pedals and pay crazy amounts for them? the pedal is a pretty simple design! and not interesting to look at! Where a 50s Les Paul is a piece of art :)
It looks like someone along the way replaced the originals with Grover tuners. Thats just a guess on my part though. But lots of people added Grovers to Les Pauls over the years.
’59 les paul seems to sound like 57,58,60,61,62,63,64,65,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,00,01,02,03,04,05,06,07..
Great video but I just wish the jazz scales/chords were reduced since it tends to become too scale orientated whereas straight blues -eg Frank Marino style imho convey more emotion- still fantastic
Monster rack era is behind, how much a real guitar signal will be eaten when it has passed through. Perhaps for this reason he returned to the old and nowadays he uses Bogner's heads (this is very old video)
I think lukes tone has been the best its ever been in the last ten years or so. His kingdom of desire tone being up there for me. And this guy has owned and played so much different gear. Just the bogners, his signature luke ernie ball guitars and some nice pedals is where its at
