Thats the worst!

dreamy! i want one so bad haha. Hope by the end of the year I can get enough money to buy one

How did you orchestrate the trade? Was it a local swap?

Great guitar! I had to laugh with your comments about your old guitar and case smelling like cigarette smoke. I remember one place I played, back in the day, where the smoke was so heavy it looked like a fog coming in from the coast. All of my equipment and clothing stunk of cigarettes. I had to go outside for fresh air during breaks to get away from the stink. -Those were the good old days.

👍

Try this experiment and bet it'll answer your question (to an extent). Take your brightest SG and your Darkest SG. Swap ALL electrics, pots, caps, wiring and Pickups. Swap between booth guitars and see if the darkest sounding SG is still the darkest and Brightest is the brightest. This will show you if the pickups and all the wiring makes the sound difference more than the wood. Try it and you may be surprised. BTW simply swapping the PUPs will not work in the same way. To really make sure about the wood may want to swap tailpiece and bridge too (only if they fit). Cheers

Fossett and his opinions on anything has zero bearing on my thoughts so could care less about whatever he said or his video was about

So you’re stirring the pot a little bit to further your own channel?…

Hahahahahahha just saw this! Thank you we need to start messing around together again

Gibson is Not where I started but ive worked hard to aquire the 10 I own of about 40 Gtrs in the Arsenal_ along the way I've had a few 'pals' make disparaging comments as in "You bought Another Gibson_? You're jst Wasting your $ cos You know Epiphones are Jst as Good , Same thing in fact"_! I Never said that their Epiphones were a lesser or inferior Gtr but jst by playing them & pulling them out amongst more Expensive Gtrs made them feel inferior and Go on a tirade to a Gibson owner _!! What makes That OK_??

Seriously dude? "Do not recommend this channel" for you and that other dork.

Jack Fossett? Hard pass. I heard he’s a jerk in real life.

I thought I’d got my “perfect guitar” a bespoke Brook Om but it was primarily a finger style guitar. After finding a really good Gibson J35 I struggle to play any old guitar such is it’s beautiful set up

I agree with your stance on relic'ed guitars. I own a 78 alder strat that was refinished previously and the previous owner also had some luthier do a relic job on the paint. Not really my thing but it was a killer price. So I took the plunge. But I'd never buy a relic guitar especially if the price was higher due to that.

first like! first comment! hope you don't forget when you're huge and have your own signature gibson bro!

The be all end all observation is the guitar that SRV played and made his number one and in the way it sounds in HIS hands , none of us could play that guitar and make it sound like SRV. EVHs Frankensttat sounds great for Eddie and it would not sound like EVH in SRVs hands….. Tone and sound are perceptions by the person playing it and the person hearing it…. The difference of which guitar is the best sounding is purely in the hands of the player for what they perceive but also the audience and listener can hear something and love it and not even play guitar or know the difference between a real 59 Les Paul or a real 59 Strat….. what makes a player play best is NOT vintage anything…. SRV and EVHs guitar made them sound great for them and were it had been a 1959 Les Paul then maybe this would verify it but we did not see either just play a 1959 Les Paul only….. tone and sound is so subjective and in the hands of all of us…. That is the fact

👍

Thanks for the shout out, I’m very proud of you and when you said the year we started made me feel old. ❤🎸

Only reason why you’re video popped up? Video riding on Tom’s popularity. Not subscribing 😎

Buk and Guthrie are Nashville bullies

Great video. My uneducated opinion on what I consider vintage is Strats and Teles- anything pre 1975 as they were mostly super heavy and undesirable after 1975, Gibsons- pre 1970, and Martin guitars pre 1969 when Brazilian was used regularly on fingerboards and back and sides. I just can't wrap my brain around "vintage" in the 1980's most likely because it makes me feel old!

Gibson please get rid of Agnessi. He has no class. Norm was so happy to get rid of him

I'm not the "vintage" police or anything, but most people who play, buy, and sell "vintage" gear would not consider a 1980 Les Paul to be vintage. It seems as though the devout old school vintage guys don't consider most post-1965 (give or take a couple years) guitars to be vintage and the less die-hards maybe give another decade at most. People listing their 80s and 90s guitars as "vintage" solely do it out of ignorance or for the sake of marketing/up-pricing with hopes of taking advantage over someone that doesn't know any better and is searching for a trendy toy to brag about.

U have a Gibson j200 you got from sweetwater and are about to trade it. Got it.

VOYXU has the right to diss the Les Paul all he wants. But when attacking people by name (Jason Isbell) he's going to catch some deserved heat. He's attacking people for clicks (which is BS). At the end of the day, if Isbell wants to spend his money on a guitar that makes him happy, good for him. I'm pretty sure that both Bukovac and Isbell have better ears and more accomplishments that this clown (VOYXU).

I told you tom bukovac talks down to people ? Right?

I thought that was Lemmo...

The phrase is "guitar coffin".

D18 mahogany and D28 Rosewood

Well I remember you saying you didn’t like the j200

you look as if bukovac had slimmed down a bit, cut his hair, shaved and decided to wear a cap. For real man haha, love your collection. I'm the same. If I like the guitar, and can afford it I don't care about the year. I have 70s strats, reissue 70s, 2000s les paul, 90s rick, signatures, standards, custom. Stock, modified, worned down or mint. If you like the sound who cares. Play them. IDGAF about what others think.

I bought a 1961 Stratocaster in 1972 for $250. For me it was the ultimate. It was stolen around 1975 and I've been searching ever since for a proper replacement without buying another vintage strat. About 5 years ago I bought a Nash S63 and in my opinion, it's every bit as good as my old '61 if not better. I've never played a burst though I've owned several Les Pauls. I'm just saying it doesn't have to be vintage to sound and play vintage. Rock on.

Bukovac has spent decades working to become an elite player. The other guy is just a colossal bore who's trolling to get his numbers up.

Meanwhile back in mom's basement practicing to be an internet expert............

VOYXU is clearly a jealous d-bag.....I tried to watch his videos but he just keeps saying the same thing over and over and over again, making a 10-15 minute video seem like 2 to 3 business days long. Tom is a hell of a musician and a great guy, that's all anyone needs to know about this situation. Don't waste your time on D-bag's videos.

Etymology of the word vintage. It is a word derived from the word wine. The word vintage was born in France and was used to refer to a certain year that produced a particularly good harvest. The word itself eliminates the fact that old means good. A Fender from the 70's or a Gibson from the 80's can be fantastic, great, but it is not vintage. I understand that there are people who want to "adjust" the meaning because they have tried or have an instrument from that time that is fantastic, but I'm sorry it's not vintage. To be so, not only does that particular instrument have to be exceptional for various reasons, but the entire production of that year has to be exceptional, for various reasons, materials, construction techniques, etc...

Blabblabla wow can u be more boring wtf

Most of shredding is just showing off fast tricks that the guy can do and has very little to do with the song. The greatest solos that are remembered for their musicality and ironically recognizable are not shred.

Put a piece of the music and let it talk for itself

Meanwhile the D-Bag just got monetized from his trolling of Uncle Larry. So - he got what he wanted!

lmfao your video production is as bad as voyxu. YT needs to stop recommending these garbage videos from tiny channels who just try to cash in on bigger KZbinr's drama.

ITS spelled wygoooo or dumbass depending on the revelence of a fuckin opinion!

He’s so good!

charlie. does he not get amazing tone outta those juniors?.. its close to the top of my heap. great choice.

My 1st guitar was a 1930s pulled from a trash pile in the 70s. I have had hundreds of guitars. Many USA vintage. After learning that 50'60' era combo of metals where strings meet wood can improve sound. I have tried it on a few Gibson made and a few Cheaper/newer guitars. All sounded/played much better. SD Pickups channel is where I got the idea/info. It was IMHO more the combo of parts that made them great. Not the year. 60s - Today Gibsons that do not have same metals do NOT sustain or feel the same

It’s fun watching all these people react to an obvious troll job.

You have officially become the mediator😂

Politics sucks across YT music channels is the elephant in the room. We have a situation here where US backed killers are committing genocide in Gaza...in the street, in broad daylight kids are being gunned down, starved and frozen to death...and all you've got is bitching about your instruments. Really? You are "grown men?" Give me a break! Your priorities are all haywire. What kind of "art" is this? OK, so you need to make a buck to keep the lights on, but you're way off beam with this instruments shit. America is going to the dogs.

May Bukovac shove a 59 Les Paul up his stinky @$$

Jason got Red eye from Ed Kings estate. King was one of the guitarist from Lynyrd Skynyrd he wrote the Sweet home Alabama riff And he passed away and his wife he’s cashing in on his collection.
