Thanks rick!

Zuerst einmal ein Lob an Lorenzo himself für dieses wunderbare "Tutorial". - Für alle Musiker ist es ja eine Herausforderung ganz allein vor dem Publikum zu spielen, das dann auf jede Feinheit achtet; noch extremer wird's, wenn das Publikum so wie hier nur rein virtuell zuschaut ... Diese Herausforderung hat Lorenzo meisterhaft bestanden, Respekt! Für mich mit ein paar kleinen Lautsprechern am Schreibtisch ist es sehr schwierig, zwischen den drei Gitarrenzu differenzieren. Aber was ich bei allen dreien mag, ist der transparente, natürliche Klang, der gerade in den Höhen nicht zu dumpf wird. (@Lorenzo direkt: wir haben ja schon mal darüber gesprochen, dass Jazzgitarristen manchmal dazu neigen, ihren Verstärker zu dumpf einzustellen ...) So wie der Sound hier in der Kombiantion dieser Gitarren mit dem Verstärker rüberkomt, so schätze ich es sehr - gerade in kleineren Clubs wird dadurch die intime Atmosphäre noch verstärkt. Vielen Dank Lorenzo !!

lieber uwe, vielen dank für dein kommentar und tolle kritik! hope to see you soon live

This is not only to demonstrate the great sound of the three excellent intruments together with this Henriksen amp, but at the same time an incredible beautiful listening pleasure, Lorenzo! You are the one, who creates the sound! Bravissimo! 😍

dankeschön marion!

IMHO, Without any doubt. The L5 1980 (the last one) sounds the best, even though the 3 are very very close. But it's not debatable, it's only a matter of personal opinion...

[@lorenzopetrocca]

Thank you so mich for your opinion@ i agree!. Feel free to subscribe desr pierre

[@danopticon]

I frankly preferred the 1993 L5 over the 1980, but as others have noted, it’s all subjective, so I’m not going to argue with anyone about it. And lovely playing, of course!! Thank you so much for having uploaded this!

dear jonas, grazie mille for your beautifull words!

[@Luciabarr]

Che bella esibizione e chitarre meravigliose 😊

[@meola100]

Very beautiful and soulful presentation! 1. Guitar: Very brilliant and clear, but not so much warmth than the two L5 2. Guitar: I hear warm natural wooden sound, Very natural sounding. 3. Guitar: Most balanced sound for me. This is grand orchestra. Clear precise bass and brilliant high notes All are in good shape (like the performing guitar player ;.) Being torn between No 2 and 3 my final order is 3 > 2 > 1

[@lorenzopetrocca]

hi thomas, thank you very much for your opinion! I m very pleased AND hope to see you live soon

[@abozzone]

What a beautiful playing! The tone differences are BIG! For me the L5 is a sweet instrument. The solid wood L5 is a dream for me. Thanks for share this video!

Lorenzo, I have a chance to buy a GB200 so came to listen to that, but stayed for all 3, incredible, sensitive and beautiful playing. Bravo.

[@terrywebb5380]

Really enjoy your playing. your 3 guitars and the gorgeous Henriksen amp are the perfect choice for a musician who has made the Archtop guitar his life’s mission. I have your Jardis albums from 2001/03 and noted then of your really great jazz sound.

[@lorenzopetrocca]

Thank you very much for your nice comment! jardis period..looong agoooo.-)))

[@kevintownsend3840]

I play an Ibanez AF95 and i could hear the diffright away between the two. Thr Gibson L5 1980 is clearly superior and i can see why the great Wes Montgomery played one.

[@lorenzopetrocca]

thanks! i totally agree

[@Jimi_7-7-7]

Wunderbar, alle drei. Die L5 in sunburst klingt für mich am angenehmsten. DER Standard einfach! Never change a running system :-) 🤝

Danke dir herzlichst für dein Kommentar jimi!

[@bettinahollmann9973]

Tolles Video, super gespielt, danke Lorenzo. Jede der 3 Gitarren bietet eine unglaublich differenzierte Klangfarbe, keine kann eine der anderen Gitarre ersetzen, daher gibt es keinen Favoriten, es sind einfach 3 Klasse Instrumente.

Beautiful playing, beautiful guitars (and beautiful amp - I have one, I'm a huge fan). Something about that Gibson sound reminds me of every jazz guitar record I grew up on!

[@lorenzopetrocca]

hi ken, i appreciated your comment very much! yes a feel luky to play this guitars and amp, thanks again! feel free to subscribe. all the best!

[@24gatesisawanker]

In just a personal preference for sound I would go for the blonde L-5 first with that floating pick up , sounds fantastic to me. Then the sunburst L-5 which also has a lovely range of sounds and then the Ibanez which sounds very hard but beautiful all the same.

[@lorenzopetrocca]

dear will, thanks for your comment, it is a pleasure to hear your opinion !

[@jeffd8597]

nice playing IMHO with all the highs rolled off they all sound very similar.

Ibanez is outclassed in this comparison of solo playing. Still a quality ax and affordable. If you are gigging with a quartet it’s likely as good in that setting as the others.

[@lorenzopetrocca]

Yes!

[@klecoxs2]

I think the 1980 L5 outclassed even the later Gibson in my opinion, beautiful Guitar

[@christianlassen3948]

My take on this trio : The Ibanez has a little more focused tone, probably quite useful in a larger band setting. For a solo performance and in a guitar/bass/drums trio, comping behind a singer etc. the blonde Gibson could really shine with the acoustic overtones it offers. The second /sunburst L5 sounds nice but offers nothing "special" to my ears. Besides, this demonstration shows the guitars in a living room situation, at a very low volume level (I hear the fingers sliding across the strings) and I could only guess how each would perform in a concert situation.

[@lorenzopetrocca]

thanks for your comment, on this video you hear of course a low volume, like most of such home-videos, most of the people are grateful to listen to the instruments in a small setting, different from the big halls etc. BUT in my youtube channel you can find a lots of live-concerts video to,-) otherwise you are invited to visit me on concert:lorenzopetrocca.de/live.html best regards

[@Tonetwisters]

The 1980 L5 wins it!

[@lorenzopetrocca]

Thanks!

[@wolfgang4078]

The Ibanez has a more clear tone than the Gibson for my ears. L 5`s are often overrated. IMO Regards Wolfgang

[@lorenzopetrocca]

thank you for your opinion wolfgang, yes the ibanez GB200 is in eny case a great guitar

The Ibanez GB200 is a carved top with maple back and sides. No laminated parts.

[@Jimi_7-7-7]

Sorry, not true / it is all laminated… with a laminated spruce top ☝️… but a great guitar anyway 🤝

[@odesyou]

@@Jimi_7-7-7 You are wrong Jimi 7. From Ibanez : Maple on the back and sides, carved solid spruce top. I have on of these and I can confirm.

[@Jimi_7-7-7]

@@odesyou I had one some months ago… they are laminated. Pls. write a mail to ibanez. You will see… the GB300 has also a laminated spruce top… like the Joe Pass Ibanez JP20 for example…

[@odesyou]

@@Jimi_7-7-7 You are right ... laminated ... snif snif !!! 😩

[@Jimi_7-7-7]

@@odesyou yea, I would say… it’s just a bad marketing by Ibanez. The people think it’s carved spruce… and they are more willing to pay some additional bucks for that. But laminated / or not… has today nothing to do with cheap or expensive. It’s about what the guitar is made for. A GB200 is not made for a one man show in my opinion. It’s a versatile Jazz guitar, for all kind of situations. That’s why it need to be flexible and very safe against feedback and so on… in this situation we are best with a laminated top :-) These are beautiful guitar anyway! Great sounding, aware playability… perfect neck… The AF200, almost all GB models, the Joe Pass JP20… they all have spruce tops👍… but they’re laminated 👏 Have fun with yours!

Guitars are just like women, you need you be a mach with it otherwise it will be pointless. .even if it .might be the most beautiful or most expensive... That ibanez could sound the best for someone ..

Interesting point haha

[@BicycleJoeTomasello]

stop hitting the pick up with your pick, switch to flat wound to get rid of your squeaks, very noisy playing.

[@bok2bok333]

Good point. Can I ask.....acoustically would you use round or half round like thomastik beebop .14. .....and use flats when plugging into an amp? Or you might just use flats full stop
