Marcus King plays a 1960 Gibson Les Paul affectionally nicknamed “The Barn Burst”. Once owned by a local farmer who’d unwind with some Lynyrd Skynyrd on his Peavey Roadmaster in his barn every night after a long day in the fields, this guitar has soul. Never circulated, one owner - A true gem!

Wow... Now we all know that Marcus has an amazing guitar that came through the family no less, but if anyone out there deserved a real burst, it would be him.

I watch most of these Carter videos. The players are all amazing, but this guy Marcus King, he is on a level of his own. I don’t listen to his music or really know him so my opinion isn’t biased. The feel he has for the fretboard recalls some really powerful players and yet he has his own thing going. Bravo Marcus.

@charliejennings4235 Ай бұрын

You need to start listening to him. Start with soul insight and work your way up towards his newer albums. You’ll see how versatile he really is. Also check out his ep.

@nicolasg9662 Ай бұрын

Agreed. I'm not a huge fan of the Marcus King Band records, but everytime he or the band appear on this kind of videos they just rock. He is an amazing player and he's got a very unique and soulful voice.

Honestly, a new Standard or RI will sound and play pretty much just as well or better. I can't believe the money people pay for these. Sure they sound great and are somewhat rare, but meh, i'd rather have a newer one if I'm actually playing it all the time. my '96 standard les paul and 2003 ES 335 are perfect. Especially through my hand wired 57 custom champ.

I truly don’t understand the whole Les Paul thing. Apart from rock/metal they just sound awful. And there are far better guitars for those genres anyway. They’re stunningly gorgeous to look at, but they sound like something that would come from a Dollar General. I’ve played guitar for 25 years and 100s of these things have been in my hands. If you cut all the wires inside of them it’d be an immediate improvement. Make it make sense.
