It is tradition for me to get a Gibson Les Paul Artisan every December. It isn't by choice, it is always by pure circumstance. This year might not top my factory BLUE 1986 Les Paul Artisan... but this 1982 is definitely a stunning example with all the best 80s Gibson parts (flip-out winding crank tuners, posi lock strap buttons, 3-point top adjust bridge - only missing the Tim shaw pafs+ stickers)

What is your favorite finish on an Artisan? 🟢My Website: www.troglysguitarshow.com 🔴Reverb: reverb.com/shop/troglys?_aid=growsumo&gs_partner=Trogly ❓Private Help Sessions: troglysguitarshow.com/help-appraisals/

@ereimul1444 Год назад

Hi Austin, Fender Japan just drop a new Strat, Tele and Jazzmaster Element series. you might wanna check Jazzmaster Elements.

@hkguitar1984 Год назад

As for the "Custom Order" description, I think the term "Special Order" would be more accurate (in some instances). My 1986 Maple Fingerboard LPC was most likely a Special Order, not a Custom Order. Great find Austin, 3-Piece Flamed Maple Neck with no Volute, very cool and Congrats.

@clarkbabin9799 Год назад

Once again congratulations on the Artisan. It looks great . Don't know if it was exactly like Dave Davies Artisan but I can't say enough how gorgeous it is. I could only ever dream of such a fine instrument. And I don't think its gaudy. I've seen some that would m as ke it look more normal than it is. Oh and as soon as your video is over I'm searching for the Kinks Father Christmas. I used to think my traditional was a beast till I got that Greenburst Studio a couple months back. That Studio weighs 11.47 lbs which I'm not used to any guitar that weighs as much . Although when I was young in the early 70s my oldest brother had came back from the airforce with an LTD LP that felt quit heavy.

@whiskeytangofoxtrot9403 Год назад

I saw a similar artisan this week locally on marketplace Dowelltown TN

@musicauthority9939 Год назад

White would definitely have to be my favorite. and it figures it would have to be the most difficult one to find. but a nicely aged one with the perfect amount of yellowing. would be a bucket list guitar for me. which means I'll probably never find one. LOL

@facurojas4477 Год назад

These 70's wallnut finish guitars are growing on me, they have kind of a "old fancy furniture" vibe and I love it

@PeterMoore350 Год назад

@@therover4141 haaaa That’s funny. Given it’s Christmas the chevy chase movie with that station wagon you’re referring to is a classic. Wallys World they were trying to get to in the wagon. Vacation wasn’t it ? And Christmas Vacation is a classic as is European Vacation Thx for reminding me Greetings from NZ

@whiteninja2006 Год назад

5:46 Oh wow that's my actual guitar! I'd recognise that top anywhere! It's 1978 Custom Natural I bought in 2016 from Guitarpoint, a vintage guitar shop located in Germany. I love it to bits, but the backside is very... interesting. Pleasantly surprised to see it ''featured'' in a Trogly video haha.

@ertugrulkaraduman5008 Год назад

Cool to see someone else that's been to Guitar Point. I bought a vintage 70's-80's Höfner 500/1 from them that had been sitting there for a while. Great guys and pretty damn fair prices.

@BGreat2 Год назад

Your passion really shows through on this one. Thank you!

@jameshughes6049 Год назад

The blue Artisan is still my favorite but the new one is nice, very classy looking.

@23ravensby98 Год назад

I agree. I am not a fan of gold hardware. That blue with the silver hardware looks beautiful.

@thomasbonnett4800 Год назад

Agree. That blue one? Wow.

@SteveOuimette Год назад

I've always been a sucker for these guitars. My first guitar teacher had one and he later ended up with all sorts of back and shoulder issues from playing 5 nights a week with one...but no pain, no gain, lol! The walnut ones are my favorite of the bunch too. So you're keeping this one?

@lisanagel9424 Год назад

This is such a beautiful guitar. Great sound too!

@Velvetnos Год назад

I live vicariously through reviews of both “The Les Paul” and Artesian models, which are both so far out of my budget, but I way appreciate what went into them. Thanks Trog

@qwertpoiuy430 Год назад

Artisan is probably obtainable, but the les Paul is godtier

@Goreadyourbible Год назад

I've watched many of your shows, this is the first time I was surprised how good a guitar can sound. It's beautiful

@stop736 Год назад

Good evening guys! Hope everyone is doing well tonight! I will say that just for myself, I’m not really in to these artisan Les Pauls that much and really it’s only because of the inlays. I’m just not a fan of those “fancy” looking inlays. But I do like other inlays that aren’t the basic kind you normally find on a Gibson or Fender even. I really like the new Ibanez TOD10, the Tim Henson model that’s an acoustic with nylon strings. I love that “tree of death” inlay and I am definitely gonna look into getting on of those sometime soon. Being a lefty that’s now playing right handed, there are SO MANY options to choose from! It’s crazy. I’m happy of course! It’s very frustrating when you’re a lefty. I’m just lucky I was just naturally ambidextrous. And it took less then a couple months to get to where I was as a lefty once I switched. I will say, these shows are a little bit cooler when you know you can possibly own what they’re reviewing on RU-vid. I love checking out all the options I’ll have now! I’m already loving my JazzMaster Acoustasonic. I really like being able to play electric and acoustic with the same guitar, that is something I appreciate more then I thought I would. And it really does make me sound way better then I am. I like the Shawbucker in it alot! It’s my first humbucker and I definitely feel and hear the difference between that and my old Tele of course. Have a good night gentlemen! Another good show Mr. Trogly!!

@johndef5075 Год назад

That is a stunner no doubt. Binding looks amazing.

@hifibrony Год назад

That certainly cleaned up nicely! Gorgeous!

@tallpaul1020 Год назад

Gorgeous guitar. What else can be said. Thx Trog!!! Keep up the great work 🎸

@petersikstrom9232 Год назад

My valnut 3 pup Artisan -77 is absolute my favorite. It came with DiMarzio SDs, installed by the shop. It had been in its case for 30 years in a closet. The original pups was not saved. I bought in 2007 and planned to forward it, but it grew on me......

@D.Guitar Год назад

I have the shaller equivalent wraptail with a TP-6 style adjustable tail. I love it.. I love having that fine tuning at the tip of my fingers in a place that is Super accessable... Trust and believe. I've tried ... for years. Adjusting on headstock. While playing. It kinda sux.... Also one reason I luv Floyd Rose trem 's. Same fine tune tail (actual Original made in Germany Floyd Rose trem.. not licensed crappy copies)

@sandraspears6389 Год назад

Initially, I was not very impressed with this guitar, but the more I watched you deep dive into it's inner working and the demo......I started to have a better appreciation for the guitar. The clean sounds were amazing to me. This example has grown on me and I am happy for your find. Love watching your videos and thanks to you, I have learned a lot about Gibson guitars.

@strat0871 Год назад

I played one like this more than 30 years ago, a guy I knew had one, (3 pups) we did a gig live on a L3 Lab Series, nice mellow sound, great souvenir.

@jocadamotoca916 Год назад

I'm not a fan of gold hardware, but on this brown color and the ageinaed binding looks perfect, this image filter makes even better, kinda like a copper binding! Love it!

@digsbyjames7726 Год назад

Lovely guitar to have in your collection. Well done Austin. 👍🎸🎸🎸🎸

@pritchettdan Год назад

Stunning instrument.

@jimmyjames2022 Год назад

Latest Christmas Artisan is very nice example, well done! Looks like there was 4 leads for an auto coil split. Would have been good to look at the toggle switch to see how they did the wiring for that.

@PolishHammer Год назад

I have a 1980 LP standard with the original case, which I have never seen on this show, it is an abs light brown full size square case with a Gibson label and a form fitted interior with two pockets, great case though mine saw too many gigs and has been retired for an skb case due to several cracks I am still waiting to see it here it must be uncommon.

@larryburwell8550 Год назад

My 81 les Paul custom cherry burst has those flip out tuners. I love them

@jonathanhudak2059 Год назад

Beautiful guitar Austin! Love those Artisans and this one is in amazing condition, congratulations!

@landrelarose745 Год назад

When you started playing that dark finished Gibson Les Paul Artisan, that second position was my favorite of those sounds. The reason for this is that it had that twang to it.

@ethanhitchcock5431 Год назад

Very Fancy, Beautiful & COOL !!....I also love the ES-335s of the same color and era....

@Furtheronmusic Год назад

Was looking at a lovely walnut one in a London Denmark St store last week. It was Dave Davies that first made me love them and I remember an original review in a magazine (probably Beat Instrumental) back in the day.

Stew Mac makes everything you need to piece together a top quality banjo using your neck for a museum piece... As for favorite Artisan finish? I'm torn between the dark walnut and the Alpine White with black binding.

@carlosdeno Год назад

A friend and band mate of mine owned one of these models and there is a photo of it in a book, called the history of the electric guitar. He loved the look of it but sold it because sound was full on treble. It was a 3 pickup model, they are a beautiful looking guitar, Sleep guitarist plays one also.

@Malama_Ki Год назад

I’m looking forward to visiting the museum one day. Good on ya!

I really like the Artisan model's. I would have to say that the blue one you have is my absolute favorite.

@rudiyantohalim736 Год назад

Man, this one have awesome looks and sound. Maybe because I love woodgrain and natural finish, though this one is finish in walnut, it's see through finish.

Love this guitar. Looks just like my '77 Artisan, but mines not quite as nice as that one with some wear to the gold plating

@jubei7259 Год назад

See that, that's how a LP should sound! The clarity on those pups was excellent.

@oldguy5381 Год назад

Here’s a fun fact, the 3D movement in the grain of wood is called Chatoyancy. Have a merry Christmas.

@jimilee459 Год назад

Absolutely beautiful. The vertical impressions on the back look likes wallet chain impressions. They’re very evenly spaced and almost perfectly vertical.

@robertkenney3005 Год назад

Definitely love that middle pup.

That's a beautiful example and a keeper congratulations sounds great too and the weight thats my kinda Les Paul no stinkin weight relief for me man ! 👏👍

@michaelbutcher9343 Год назад

Where is the museum going to be located?

@larryburwell8550 Год назад

I replaced those tar back pickups in my 81 custom cherry with dimarzios paf in neck super distortion in bridge. She sings

@PeterMoore350 Год назад

Austin I’m not normally a fan of the walnut tops but bro the woodgrain on that is stunning. That has to “straight to the pool room” (ref to an Oz classic movie called The Castle) Meaning that’s gotta be a keeper. Greetings from NZ 😎🎸🤘

@stinger720 Год назад

Just wow.... I love that so much

@ericbgordon1575 Год назад

The comment about players that only prefer humbuckers over single-coil puts me in mind of the unboxing video uploaded by Guitar MAX, featuring a beginner-grade Sawtooth model modeled on the Strat. Max does a first-rate job as not losing girth when he switches between H-H, H-S-H, H-S-S and S-S-S. It was thanks to this Channel that I have been able to partake of how the bridge and middle humbuckers on a model like this LP Artisan sound. I was afraid I wouldn't like it. It essentially amounts to being just a chunkier version of the same combination on a Stratocaster. Wouldn't mind knowing if that's what I was hearing on two of my favorite tracks from the 70s, "Dialogue" by Chicago and "I Wouldn't Want to Be like Ypu" by the Alan Parsons Project.

@michaelwillinger Год назад

I've never been a fan of the Artisan. A little too much for my style and taste. I can't do 3 pickup guitars because I constantly hit the middle pickup and can always hear a tap through my amp. Also a bit too gaudy for my taste. But saying that, I can appreciate them for what they are. Super fancy and intricate pieces of art. Great find Austin. It will make a fine addition to the museum.

@shawndouglass2939 Год назад

You're right, that is a gorgeous Guitar 🎸 😍 I really like the Blue one too though 💙

@larrynoe6162 Год назад

That would be great next to my Epiphone Lee Malia Signature Artisan. I believe they had the same guy design the fretboard for the Epi that did the Gibson Atrisan.

@scottcalloway4630 Год назад

Hey Trog, is it not possible to clean up the pick guard with a micro abrasive polish to remove the haze left from the plastic sticker?

@kenb9762 Год назад

I had a walnut 70's SG-1 that I had to sell in the early 2000's. I miss it to this day.

@Bluedragon003 Год назад

Such a beautiful guitar, I am very very jealous! I've wanted a walnut artisan for years but it always seems when I have the expendable cash I can never find a good one.....or the opposite, I see a near perfect one and don't have the expendable cash lol!

@thestrum71 Год назад

I like Artisans. The blue one was a cool example, but this one beats them all. I'ld consider this a keeper!!

Damn this guitar sounds exactly what you would imagine looking at it... if that makes sense. Truly special

@sydwynd Год назад

I had the opportunity to purchase a black Les Paul artisan (2 pickup) around 1987 or so. It was $600 used at the time. Unfortunately, I didn't have the cash so I had to pass. To this day I call it the guitar that got away. Would LOVE to get my hands on one but don't have (and wouldn't spend) $6-7K to get one. That guitar was one of the top 5 I've ever played.
