I love the bridge pickup on les pauls they just sound righ for me
Tom Quayle is much bigger than this guitar…
Its a far east made guitar, dont expect much. I got a 2010 Epiphone Les Paul Standard and its perfect, but you always get a risk.
I just ordered mine 🙂
@GoGatorsGoooo Probably added after the recording.
I have a video posted of the 2nd guitar they had to send. 1st was a mess. I’ve been playing’ on and off my whole life, so I do know a warped guitar when I see one. I am not a master player, but if you watch the video, you’ll see I ain’t no slouch. Not to mention I’ve heard many complaints on the Epi. JB. for fret buzz. Video is under Joe Bonamassa Epiphone Les Paul. Or click on frederick2112. Peace
Tried one of these last week. I’m sorry I didn’t buy it. A great fat tone out of it.
amazing review as always you tell us what we need to know and answer questions without us having to ask 😀
@xtremeguitar95 Hi there, We dont have a review of the Jackson RR5 im afraid – plus were not sure why your comment was flagged as spam?
Sounds like mud m8 sorry
LOL. The stuff coming out of the “far east” has a higher, more consistent manufacturing quality than what’s coming off the production line in Nashville where the quality control frankly sucks.
false. bonamassa doesnt use much gain at all. you can hear it and hes said it several times.
good job!
actually, it is delay that I hear?
sweet gtr 😀
Sounds like your guitar tech may be the lemon — sure you’re applying enough finger pressure against the fret? 🙂
hes probably running it through the loop mate
The Nashville built guitar I just acquired is a very well made and top quality guitar. There are more excellent ones than shit ones. People hear about one bad guitar to come out of Gibson and they slag them off. They are human after all.
yes he did
Big reason i watch these is just to watch Tom play……
joes use gain 10 all of his amp on stage ……..
I’ve had mine for about two months, bought at guitar center, no issues, this thing plays awsome
You said you are not running anything in to the front of the amp. Why do I hear reverb?
Yes, he is using two rocks amp in his current tour.
the Bonamassa Epiphone is a lemon. I bought one 4 weeks ago and its been back to the shop twice for serious fret buzz. I just drove 100 miles to vegas to pick it back up and it still does not play. now the 17th fret wont even sound out. I really expected more out of Joe bonamassa. Very disappointed in this whole situation. I want my money back
Forget the Bonamassa sound- I just want that Les Paul sound- this Les Paul sounds better than ANY Epi ive ever heard (some Gibsons too)- Rocks I need one!!!!
i dig my epi Bonamassa goldtop it feels like a real 59 gibson les paul, the burstbuckers 2/3 makes the amp do all the work, i gig this guitar and so does my friend (old school hit funk band, rhymes with dodger and wapp) and in big venues /loud volumes,this guitar doesnt feed back
