Gibson Les Paul Supreme - No Ordinary Les Paul!

[@RubyRoks]

Loved Lee's phrasing in the intro jam. He's always had very vocal sounding solos. Beautiful stuff.

[@burtmurry1690]

Pete you’re like the uncle my mom refused to invite to all the gatherings. Completely inappropriate and infuriating but undoubtedly the life of the party and has everyone in stitches. You are are the one teaching all the kids inappropriate jokes and the only reason why I went to such gatherings. 🤟🏽

That intro jam was simply beautiful. Thank you.

“It’s got a million options, but we only like the ones that were already there in 1959” And I totally agree with you.

[@keithclayton1271]

These seem like great guitars. I haven't played one yet, but I did have a jam session at Guitar Center on the previous generation back in like 2011-2012, and it was such a pleasure to play. Preferred it over my CS '57 Goldtop reissue. It's too bad this new incarnation lacks the "World" inlay on the headstock. It was so beautiful and "supreme."

[@dbenadon]

Great opening jam! Nice to see Lee take a lead!

[@thomassaunderson2746]

I just bought one of these back to the UK from the 'Gibson Garage' store (incredible shop) whilst on a business trip to Nashville. Absolutely awesome guitar. I got the translucent ebony model, but it was a tough choice between that and the wine red. Sounds and plays beautifully.

[@johnconnearnmusic]

Oh my word. That wine red edit: I got the wine red and I am in love

[@sarahandrebeccatogetherfor3246]

This Gibson reminds me of my Epiphone Les Paul Tribute Plus with the push and pull controls

[@gavterrygt]

I have one of those and was thinking the same, only I think the classic 57s on the epi are nicer pickups, but I like a more vintage sound

[@davedoubleddykhuizen]

I have my Les Paul setup with the Jimmy Page wiring: the single coil sounds aren't great by themselves, but sound really cool in series, à la a Danelectro. Singles in series out of phase is pretty groovy, too. Honestly, though, anything that can thin out a Paul in a dense mix can be handy., particularly if you're playing with another humbucker user.

[@donbishop6994]

There's a good reason so many bands over the years used an LP and a Strat style guitar as a pair. They compliment each other very nicely in the mix.

[@ovivan79]

Played one of these in my local store today. They are truly beautiful and play and sound amazing. I can't justify the pricepoint though. I've got a Gibson 50s Std., Maybach Lester 59, Epi 60s Std and an Epi Modern. The Epi Modern comes very close tot his in my opinion. One day I might swap the pickups and upgrade electronics, but paying 5199$ CAD for this? Nope.

[@Allguitarinfo]

Those 2 les pauls and those effects patches in you guys hands are a great combination...I absolutely love ,that tone ,those little hotter ,warmer pickups, the tonal options just sound so perfect ...The Allmans Vibe was awesome guys..not much else to say ..the Demo was just awesome. I want , need , one soon.

[@DavidKennaway1]

The way to use the Peter Green tone effectively is in the middle position turn one of the pickups volume down and then you can blend the tone. On its own it sounds too thin. Blend it and it's epic.

[@socialmeaslesinpartnership1252]

That is SO! It's a bit "special" if you just leave the volumes full up, you need to explore to "Get the juice". Great sounds in there.

[@tomstegall1346]

Lee is a very good guitarist, that being said he is like in the movies , a co star, Pete being the lead man, which is not to say he’s not good, he’s giving Pete very sweet backing and a lead from the Cap is a very welcome groove

[@martinward7230]

I owned a supreme about 15 years ago and it is a different animal than a standard or custom LP. They aren't cheap but when you pick it up and start playing you immediately see the difference.

[@hpugrad2001]

That is a modern with a flame top and ebony fret board.

[@groan_of_tedium]

It's like you've only just realized Gibson have about 4 guitars that they've been flogging to people all these years 😂

[@whiskeytangofoxtrot9403]

No different than aging a second rate quality and charging 3x the price

[@benallmark9671]

With split block inlays , yep.

[@ericsplittgerber5154]

The modern already had an ebony board actually. This adds the flame top, the inlays, the headstock treatments and the gold hardware but it's definitely just Gibson trying to get rid of the rest of the modern bodies they didn't sell before.

[@HVA58]

Pete, you have good taste playing the wine red one. I have one and absolutely love it. Just a fantastic guitar, in every way.

[@tonyr.7433]

Beautiful intro guys!

[@ProcashFloyd]

[@kodyb8675]

That outro jam was teasing some Alice in Chains vibes, love it

[@edwardgriffin8092]

I love reading Pete's face when he demo's the features on a guitar. I can instantly see what he likes, and dislikes. And the funny thing is, although I can barely play a guitar (I can almost do a three chord trick), 99.9% of the time I agree with him 😂 One other thing... @ 5:56 Pete said, "After a good nights sleep, and some Yoga in the morning". I think Pete meant to say, "After a good nights sleep, and some Yoghurt in the morning" 🤣😂🤣

[@halloweenjack2562]

Possibly the most awesome guitar ever produced! And in perfect wine red.

[@where-we-roam]

Allman Brothers vibe on the intro jam. Loved it.

[@rowbags3017]

Nice! 😎One of these days I really must treat myself to a trip to Guildford to visit Andertons! Affordable guitars are something I'm happy to take a punt on and buy online without trying - but I'd love to compare some of their higher-end guitars hands-on to figure out what would be best for me.

[@alexpiva9672]

I started watching for the instruments, I stayed for the music. Amazing playing indeed

[@pippo_platero]

I was ready to buy the Transparent Ebony Burst but you guys don't ship to South America, that's very disapointing because I literally fell in love with this guitar. You guys should ship to us! It you get you a lot of new costumers!

[@Cpmnk]

I remember wanting a supreme when i was a kid. They were "the dream". Its a shame i dont like Gibsons after playing tons of them over the years

[@TheYoutube_kid]

Winning something like a guitar right now would help so much because I’m just starting play gigs and play with my band in my school, I hope I win something

[@FelixIsMyName]

Was very, very close to getting one of these the other week. I had previously owned a Classic Custom then got a full Custom Shop Custom last year but sold it as I felt uncomfortable with a £4300 guitar with my abilitiy. Regretted it instantly and I ended up getting a smoking deal for one a few month newer than the one I sold last year and I'm happy as a lamb to have a Gibson LP Custom.

[@dominicmcmahon4798]

[@thenumber1bobo]

the RWRP middle pickup of modern Strats is what keeps positions 2 and 4 from being out of phase, it doesn't make them out of phase. Flipping the direction of current in the supremes neck pickup with the with does produce a true OOP signal.

[@a.j.garrett9639]

Pete really enjoyed himself in this video 😂😂

[@NINEWALKING]

It's Gibson USA Les Paul Modern with thick multiply binding, split markers, and ebony fretboard. Plus, there is a big headstock with nothing like Suoreme marking. Has absolutely nothing to do with the old Supreme model. If I see good, it is a Nashville bridge as well. No ABR-1 there. It is under the Custom Shop.

[@johnnyxmusic]

No carved back! 😢

[@RByrne]

Yeah, I agree. I have both and both are amazing guitars, but nothing alike aside from fret inlays, and the chambering.

[@andywhite3777]

But a lovely high price

[@lukesavory4754]

The Les Paul Modern also has the ebony fretboard

[@williamwinn948]

had my eye on one of these but think I'm gonna go with the LP standard 60s in deep purple burst

[@RobertJones-rd5wl]

No matter how much I love the tone and classic shape of Les Paul, it still feels like carrying a piece of heavy, beautiful furniture strapped to my arm when I play it standing. I guess I’m not strong enough. And yes, I tried weight relieved ones.

[@JB19504]

[@charlesflint9048]

I don’t have a Les Paul and I shouldn’t be watching this because I can’t really afford one. I do have an SG Standard which I love, but this is something I would really enjoy playing except that the price is 3 times I payed for my SG. It looks fabulous,and sounds great (Danish Pete makes it sound really great) so can you please have one as a prize for someone ( hopefully me)!

Pete is just unhinged in this video! so good

[@robjohnson5829]

[@SoundOfOneHandClapping]

For 4k, maybe they could add a volute to strengthen the headstock, address the g-string issue, etc. beautiful, but no thanks.

[@helloyu6270]

If they were going to drop the maple back due to adding a carved heel joint they should have at least kept the no control/switch plate design and preferably burst finished the back as well. Maybe even used AAA grade figured mahogany back to slightly keep the spirit of the original Supremes. This guitar as it stands is more of a Les Paul Modern with fancy inlays and headstock rather than a Supreme.

[@JKM395]

The only thing I wish was different is the tuners. They used Grover Imperials on the old ones and I always liked those. Great guitars though.

[@vincentrandles8105]

Well....i see Pete's been in 'is cups again! Cheers pete! Hey what are you going for when you're "Rheting" the guitar headstock back & forth, so on.....I understand up & down, that at least effects the note.

[@helloyu6270]

Supremes were never custom shop

[@michaelbolshazy3532]

the sound coming from the strumming support is insane. Such rich tone and depth on a clean setting that rings through whatever lead is in front and doesn't lose any of its warmth and voice. Great pick ups I guess. Maybe a little hand nuance but so good!!!!!

[@alexhuevera939]

Nice! I got one a couple weeks ago in Translucent Black. What an awesome guitar! I have an 08 Supreme as well, and the new one has a much more modern feel to it, endless tone options and amazing sustain. Its also well under 8lbs, and looks incredible. The build quality is well on par with the Custom Shop, as is the flame top.

[@benallmark9671]

Maybe to you , not to me. They're great though.

[@HVA58]

Right with you there. I’ve got a wine red one and love everything about it! 😉

[@TurfShifter]

Sadly nothing like the originals; they also had the flame on the back and I believe they may have also had an arched back. They were killer looking. That is a Les Paul standard with a nicer than average top for a massive hike in the price. No thanks.

[@506thLittleberry]

I think of it more like a Les Paul Custom with fancier inlays.

[@thesandman775]

The arch back was arguably the worst feature of the original version. I contemplated buying one of those used about 8 years ago (for much cheaper than these are going for... how the times have changed) and the fact that it had an arch back made it great to look at but difficult to work on.

[@kenmorales3108]

I disagree completely. I own both a Les Paul standard HP and I just picked up one of these Supremes. The older supreme was a little bigger and felt boxier, which didn’t feel as comfortable as this new line. I did like the way the back looked on the first line of Supremes better than the solid black, but this new line is more comfortable to hold and play. They are not the same guitar. However, that’ said, everyone is entitled to their opinion. 🤘😎

[@kenmorales3108]

@@thesandman775​​⁠ I totally agree. It looked nice, but it felt bigger and boxier than this new line. I just picked up a fireburst one on Black Friday. I love it. It’s the best guitar I’ve ever owned. It feels and plays great- no complaints at all.

I’ve a LP Modern and I love it - id love to try the supreme out and compare as on paper, other than the finish and extra pearl additions there doesn’t appear to be any difference? Thoughts?

[@andywhite3777]

I agree and thought the same. There seems to be a strange thing happening at Gibson. Remember the play authentic and return to making classic standard models in every iteration of sunburst or gold top?? The dropping of the annual release etc?? What happens when someone bought a 2020 standard 59 in sunburst and the 2022 is identical (apart from a light colour back)? Oh, let’s change some of the senior management and roll out the weight relieved models from 2016/2017 etc. take off the poker chip, put in the coil splits etc, chamfer the heal a bit, a few inlays here and there and double the price.

[@18Crowie]

Agreed - looks like a posh version of my Pelham Blue LP Modern

[@HVA58]

I had the Faded Pelham Blue Gibson Modern and now have a Wine Red Supreme. I know they have many of the same features, but my Supreme feels better, sounds better (more definition and a little brighter) and looks fantastic. It’s all subjective, but I am so much happier with the Supreme!

[@daboosreviews8819]

I agree man! I have several Les Pauls (3 Standards, a '79 Custom Silverburst, a 2022 Adam Jones, a mod shop and a Modern) and my Modern is just insanely good. I can't imagine the Supreme, or any guitar, being able to play better. I have to admit though that the Supreme looks fancy and badass at the same time. I'm not generally into fancy guitars but the combination of that and the LP Modern vibe might be a hard one to pass up. $4,000 though?! It can't be THAT much better than my Modern.

[@michaeldutill9921]

[@kootenaystringworks1765]

I'm not a fan of Rim Burst paint jobs. Too bad they didn't keep the flamed back without cavity covers, the electronics used to be fed through the pickup cavity as the guitars was chambered and had no back plates for access. It was really cool construction. This incarnation is somewhat normal.

The only difference between this and the Gibson Les Paul Modern is the pickups, inlays and the colours (hardware and paint)...and the price 😆. Think I'll stick with my Modern.
