My new 50s Tribute Les Paul (Gary Moore Tribute)

[Jimi75]

Before no one is gonna post something...let me try to entertain you wit ha fresh clip of my still new Gibson 50s Tribute Les Paul.
I came along with some Gary Moore inspired licks and so I decided to dedicate this short little clip to the man himself.

Very nice tribute. I always liked much of Gary's material. Found he could be a bit bombastic but when he was at his melodic best he was amazing. Love that guitar too. Looks like a nice ride. Easy to play? Tuning stability? My LP Standard is a sweetheart but has that G string binding thing that never quite goes away. Anyway, sure looks like a nice LP.

^ Thanks! Yeah the LP is extremely easy to play. Tuning stability is quite good as well. What amazes me the most are the PUs. I was quite sure I was gonna change them, but changed my mind within the first minutes I played this guitar.

You're right - Gary was a little over the top sometimes - I once saw him live and at certain parts it was overwhelming. Nonetheless, when he shifted into melodic gear it was something very special.

Love that guitar, Jimi. You're playing is very soothing. Just awesome.

That's great! Tell me more about that guitar. Where is it made?

I really enjoyed that, Jimi. I agree with you on the pickups. They sound like keepers.

[Jimi75]

Thanks my friends! The guitar seems like perfect out of the box.
@Robert: It's a US made Gibson. The PUs are Gibson's own 490s (R&T). Other than that the guitar is pretty basic, no bindings and other "bling bling". It's a highly enjoyable instrument.
