Members dcooper830 Posted August 20, 2008 Members Share Posted August 20, 2008 A Standard Faded and it is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! Here's a clip: [YOUTUBE]pX_xtsQIwJQ[/YOUTUBE] I've played several Standard Fadeds before and loved the feel of 'em. The worn in, organic feel. Chunky yet fast neck. The growly, resonant, yet biting tone. And this one I just got is no exception. It's absolutely amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members IBDBB Posted August 20, 2008 Members Share Posted August 20, 2008 Crazy! So when are you going to sell all your Epi's to fund more Gibson's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GAS Man Posted August 20, 2008 Members Share Posted August 20, 2008 OMG dc, the Gibson LP bug has bit your ass severely. Well, until you catch up to me and have 7 Gibbies & 1 Epi LP, then at least you can say you're more sane than "that guy". But with your total collection of Epi's plus now Gibbies, what's your LP count? But anywho, congrats! Njoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dcooper830 Posted August 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted August 20, 2008 Crazy! So when are you going to sell all your Epi's to fund more Gibson's Well...... I was easily able to fund the first two Gibsons I got through the sale of some Epiphones and some other gear. But now I'm down to some stuff thats gonna be a little harder to part with....... but I'll do it if I have to. I'll never part with my Epi Alpine White LP Custom. Or my Epi Black DOT. I'm debating wether or not to sell my Zakk Wylde LP. Decisions.......... decisions.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members IRG Posted August 20, 2008 Members Share Posted August 20, 2008 I haven't been on this forum as much, but I expected to see a plain top Epi, and I find a Gibson instead. Wow! Are the Gibsons overall worth the upgrade? I am planning on a Gibson Standard sometime in 2009 - I think though they are pricey, overall it's worth it. They do hold their value. My local vintage shop has some customized Gibson Faded 50s/60s models that have been reworked with the Peter Green mod. I can't copy the exact page, but it's here: http://www.rumbleseatmusic.com/ click on Gibson, then scroll down to the CV Guitars with the PG Mods. About $2k with a bunch of upgrades. Sweet guitars, I've play a few. Nice LP though man, congrats!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dcooper830 Posted August 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted August 20, 2008 Well, congratulations That studio of yours is still my fave of your 3. Funny thing about that LP Studio I got..... when I first got it, I thought it was nice but it didn't really blow me away or anything. Then I took it out on gigs and that's when the true amazing tone and personality of it came out. It really, really comes to life at band volume. It has this huge, thick, cutting tone with a really unique spank to it. Now I'm truly blown away by it. When I first got it, the frets were in terrible shape and a couple of the tuners were practically falling apart. So I sanded and polished the frets and put a new set of TonePros Kluson style tuners on there. And it's like a new guitar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the Standard Fadeds are really cool! I really like the organic feel and chunky "50s" neck. Also the uncovered Burstbucker PROs make for a nice amount of crystal high end clarity. Yet the guitar has extended lows and mids too. They have a really, really vibrant tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
