Les Paul Gibson, got any words of it?

Gibson Guitar is a worldwide guitar brand and i guess that every human in this world has met with its design. an American maker of guitars which successfully put their products into every guitarists’ dream in tasting the great sound and experiencing its magnificent craftsmanship through guitar playing. and other instruments, now based in Nashville, Tennessee. in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Orville Gibson founded The Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co., Ltd. in 1902 as mandolin-family instruments company. best part of Gibson invention is arch-top guitars model by constructing violin-like guitar models. their flattop acoustic guitars is a legendary legacy through time known as hollow-body electric guitars.And Yes, Gibson has it. one of the world’s most collectible and iconic guitars, the Gibson Les Paul. And since then, Gibson built famous guitar models which are imitated by lot of guitar brands, I’ll say it,”Gibson guitar is an inspiration”. Gibson company has legal copies of its famous guitar models which are cheaper than guitars with Gibson name on them. For example, the Les Paul model is sold under the Epiphone brand, while they have their own model such like the Sheraton and Casino, and i have a Les Paul style guitar, the gorgeous Gretsch Electromatic Pro Jet. there are so many variant in designs for Les Paul model itself. too many? i guess it’s not, since these models built modern music through time. here are few pictures of them:

My Fender Special Edition Custom Telecaster Spalted Maple Top HH

YES! now is a great time to bring stuff that made my ass work hard lately and forgot to blog. A new guitar for my playing. it’s Fender Special Edition Custom Telecaster Spalted Maple Top tele® HH and she’s gorgeous! I’d been read about this stuff and its reviews several years ago and luckily i met this Fender last year. actually, it took me a year later to take this to my house but i have no complain at all about this spalted maple tele.here i share some pictures i made for this guitar and i think you’ll like it. The guitar itself is a Set Neck Tele and it has beautiful finish well-crafted by Korean manufacturer. this fender special edition custom spalted maple tele is using rosewood fretboard. It has fine playability, the design is natural and very beautiful, i got mine with fire-like spalted maple design.

a brief fender spalted maple telecaster review about the playability that some owners of this guitar said is, Fender Telecaster spalted maple top has a les paul feel. hmm, at first in playing it I couldn’t find this, but after couple minutes, yes, for seconds i felt like i’m holding a les paul guitar. It might be the neck size and color and similar pickups it used those cause this. but the two Seymour Duncan humbuckers operated by push-pull tone knob and three-tone switch are good ideas in changing sound characters on live performances. it’s quite convenient. there’s no complain about the neck, but I’ve been holding the 24-frets neck for years and i guess i need more practices to feel this guitar neck. the guitar neck is great, while me-gotta practice more and more. this two pictures i made here somehow reminds me the led zeppellin song title, “stairway to heaven“. 😀 i just love this tele..

this spalted maple tele is on 2007 year made, i am the next owner and currently i couldn’t find the new one for this. probably Fender switches this product to Custom Telecaster FMT HH (see detailed product here) which it has great reviews, too. but i couldn’t make any negative reviews about my Fender Spalted Maple Top Tele® since it has been so great, and the more i couldn’t wait to make video reviews about stuff i use 😀 still making experiments for my own videoblog and sound recording for blogs, wish me luck!
