Gibson Murphy Lab R9 Les Paul 1959 Reissue | Guitar of the Day

[@piccochr]

For a brief second, I thought he was about to play "Don't Let Him Go" by Gary Richrath of Reo...which got me thinking...I'd love to see him play some Richrath licks; I loved that guy's playing.

[@paulcopsey6573]

Just be nice to see what the tone & volume knobs can do occasionally. There is s rumour that on a Les Paul you can crank the amp up, but dial the guitar down for a clean tone.

[@johnvmaguire5635]

It’s not a rumour but on any valve amp with any guitar you should be able turn the volume down on the guitar to clean up the sound when there crunch or gain on it

[@snapfinger1]

Norm continues to impress with his hand selected examples.

[@jakechrisley398]

Gotta start throwing out some love to Gary Rossington when playing a Les Paul dude!!

[@rockhead69]

Beautiful guitar...Les Pauls rule !

[@Natalia-jn8ul]

Everything about this instrument is perfect! Awesome!

[@michaelhotz7118]

I love these videos. I would really like to know the signal path on these videos. I also wish every guitar would start out clean.

[@chassisresearchkid]

Wow! Another one!

[@richardrich8010]

What a beautiful guitar🔥🔥🔥

[@michaelvaladez6570]

Yeah let it rip..! Its a beaut..for sure..that flame 🔥 top is drop dead gorgeous !

[@daytimetundra7757]

Gibson Reverse Flying V is cool too.

[@7ender8lues12]

Gotta love that clean sound 😅

[@sapelopelo]

I love how he plays, just the perfect touch. You listen to him and you know this dude plays all day, its honestly inspiring. I wish he played a little more clean so i could hear just a hair better the guitar. Anyway amazing. Beautiful guitar and top

[@patrickcollins6830]

You said it. It's hard to assess the guitar when it's not clean -- though the playing is great and you sure do get a grasp of how it rocks -- which is maybe where most users live? I'm guessing that Norm has great clout at Gibson -- as he should.

[@dude7234]

Amazing guitar and Lemmo killing it as always. Can you guys tell us what kind of pedals you're using? Would be really cool! 🤘

[@JLCwakeboardingFL]

Dangit lemmo killed it again

[@password_xy]

Wow

[@ckelly5141]

How 'bout a dirty lemon burst martini 🍸 to go with my dirty lemon burst Les Paul? 🍋🎸

[@Stratocus]

Bring Back Jen! Lemmo's playing is always great but the videos need Jen's sunshine!

[@russpennekamp5149]

She's on maternity leave.

[@Stratocus]

@@russpennekamp5149 I know but we need her!

[@danielfritz954]

Knopflers real 59 was sold for 470.000 pounds just a few days ago ^^

[@turdoirishman]

According to 'Guitar World' and Christie's Auctions it was sold for 693000 £ ( 876000 $ )

[@billw8648]

you rock Lemmo!

[@clutchcarabelli8054]

Was that first tune an Original?

[@Redrumificationable]

what's that third riff Lemmo often plays?

[@davidturner9266]

THE ELLEMMO -ANATER❤ strikes again🐧

[@withadraco]

i know that song and its sat at the top of my tongue for 3 minutes while i scour the web lmao someone help what song is this? AS ALWAYS GREAT VIDEO! love it, would love to visit you guys some day and buy a reissue!

[@andyjales]

Ahhhhhh.......what a beauty, gosh, my unreachable guitar 😅.

[@jcout25]

Just save for it, mate. Very reachable. You just have to want it enough. I saved for a decade to get my R8. I told myself I had to be good enough at guitar to justify the price. So I played the shit out of my Squier and set aside money every month. for 120 months. Which is still roughly $60 a month lol. But cut out the popeyes, booze and netflix, and just practice your geet!

[@andyjales]

@@jcout25 absolutely right, and that is the guitar that ve made me crazy since I was a child, so I ll do it mate, thanks for your words!!!!!

[@steveferry4922]

Buy a Heritage 150...same thing

[@jsauce311]

Got damn that sounds good

[@silvestrovirdis2315]

Bella e costosa questa Les Paul. !!!

[@chriswright5204]

Sounds great, looks pretty tasty

[@myDetailsDetails]

Has Gibson ever made a 59 burst? Just asking.

[@masonwhitham5104]

What band are you in? Send me your tour dates I’m on my way.

[@jimmyb4728]

Nice guitar but they are way overpriced, I just bought a 60's Les Paul in Trans Fuscia the top is insane, every angle it shows different stripes on the top, with all that being said, there's tool marks up n down the fretboard, when I plug in there's a loud hum through the amp then stops when I grab it, when I pay 3 grand for a hand built guitar the quality needs to be on par, with a PRS S2 there are no tool marks the electronics work perfectly, plus it's a thousand bucks less

[@jcout25]

Some people pay extra for tool marks hahaha! And it sounds like you got a grounding issue. Just pop open the back and take a look. Super easy to fix, dude. A multimeter will even tell you the exact place that isn't grounded. Then a dot of solder and you're set. All in less than 5 minutes. But you're right, you shouldn't NEED to do any of that.

[@guitarmaster50]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@acemacgruber6593]

I would like to see some Epiphone guitars because I will never be able to afford something like this unless someone wants to pay my rent.😅

[@xprophet9]

The same guitar without the Murphy is 6600 bucks…is the aging worth the extra thousands?

[@sharkman4928]

Michael Lemmo and Bam Margera were separated at birth. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Rn-qr8di]

All for the “reasonable” price of $12,800

[@davet.3587]

All for the Rich and famous

[@thrashinwebster]

And even more for us in New Zealand’ even tho NZ and Canada are part of the commonwealth u would think the price of things would be pretty much the same’ it’s getting ridiculous how much guitars cost these days’ ✌️

[@laurentblond6760]

...and 12 800 € in France. The price of second hand little car for most people

[@Paulie1974]

An sure at that price I'll get two 😂

[@h20s56]

Isn't the Ultra light aged list at $7199?

[@stevenbaggett6549]

Worth 2k tops

[@CJEAGLES36]

Wait he's an eagles fan? Hell yaaa

[@damned1313]

Gonna sound great in a rich dudes closet

[@richardschley4110]

👍✌❤😎

[@samright4661]

You’re no good ! Van Halen style love the way they did that song

[@BuhdaPunk]

Watching this hurts. It was not an R9 but rather a 2016 Trad almost the same amber. Its like having a child kidnapped, would really like it back.

[@MattSChewbacca]

Man, these videos are getting shorter every day. Maybe you could do a series of " this is how this guy gets their sound." That would feature more equipment for the average guy,amp, pedals etc.

[@kstogie]

I can't believe a guy gets paid (or a whole lab of guys) to beat up expensive guitars to various degrees. And then people play significantly more for those instruments.

[@bluesky6361]

TOO MUCH REVERB! Sounds like mush.

[@gzo313]

I have to agree.

[@mysteriomarvel933]

Haha Van Halens You're no Good and Somebody get me a doctor...interesting choices to play on a Les Paul....

[@jeffreyprice773]

Pity you didn't play clean mellow tones instead of those scratchy tones. Didn't really demonstrate its versatility, To much fuss made of all these Murphy type guitars, too much money, no doubt. A poor demonstration. You think people have all this money £, we're not all Quids in mate.

[@TeleTonemonkey]

Yeah, pretty sure you could get an original for less than that! #ripoff

[@ozflyer1]

amp sounds like crap...pretty sad

[@timr2618]

Might have well have played an epiphone for all the 'tone' he got from the guitar, waste of time. Get someone who knows how a guitar can be demonstrated not just showing off his 'chops'.
