Für viele Gitarristen ist es eine Überraschung, wenn sie entdecken, dass es einen Musiker gab, der genauso heißt wie die eigene Lieblingsgitarre. Und der Mann war auch noch Gitarrist - so ein merkwürdiger Zufall. Spoileralarm: Es ist genau andersherum, denn es war Les(ter) Paul(fus), der die Les Paul erfunden hat. Gibson hat sie dann gebaut und vermarktet. Die Herkunft ist nur eine der Mythen, die sich um die Gibson Les Paul ranken, eine der legendärsten, bekanntesten und begehrtesten E-Gitarren überhaupt. Und dann gibt es noch die Technik dahinter, denn Gibson gehört zu den Firmen, die einen soliden, handwerklichen Background besitzen. Gibson Les Paul Mythos & Technik ist vollgestopft mit praktischen Tipps zur Wartung Einstellung und Verbesserung der Gitarre, die man selbst ausführen kann, auch wenn man kein Fachmann ist - sowie den Hinweis, wann man besser zum Profi geht. Das alles wird zu einer faszinierenden Technik- und Kulturbetrachtung einer Gitarre verwoben, die die Welt der populären Musik geprägt hat. Wer eine Gibson Les Paul besitzt, für den ist Gibson Les Paul Mythos & Technik von Paul Balmer ein must have! Für alle anderen natürlich auch. Mit einem Vorwort von Les Paul Der legendäre Les Paul persönlich verfasste nicht nur das Vorwort, sondern spricht in einem Interview auch über die Entstehungsgeschichte und die Besonderheiten seiner Gitarre. Tipps zur Wartung liefern John und Andy Diggins. Mike Vernon erzählt von den Bluesbreaker-Sessions mit Eric Clapton und Neil Dorfsman erinnert sich an die sagenumwobenen Aufnahmen zu Money for Nothing, bei denen Mark Knopfler eine Les Paul spielte.

Most musicians are familiar with the famous Bigsby Vibrato, but not as many know about the wonderful guitars that Paul Bigsby built in the 1940s. Bigsby, who was responsible for developing and refining the pedal steel guitar, also built the first modern solid body electric guitar for Merle Travis in 1948, predating Leo Fender and Gibson's Les Paul by a number of years. The Story of Paul A. Bigsby tells how Bigsby influenced Fender and Gibson, as well as a number of other guitar manufacturers, in building techniques and design. This deluxe illustrated coffee table book contains over 300 color and black & white photos. Many of these have not previously been published, and over 50 are actual Bigsby instrument photos taken by fine arts photographer Greg Morgan. The book also comes with an audio CD of Paul Bigsby, recorded in the late 1950s, telling stories of his business.

Some of the most iconic recordings ever set to vinyl were produced on the Gibson Les Paul with the “Patent Applied For†pickup which, with its glass-like chime and haunting mids, represents the heart and soul of classic rock and the foundation upon which all subsequent guitar tone has evolved. The analysis within these 4-color pages precisely examines that very heart and soul, investigating its origins, development and rise to stardom...leaving no stone unturned in a quest to understand exactly what it is about the mythology of this particular combination of wires, wood and metal that make it so appealing to the ear, and so irreplaceable to the mix. Never before has such a revealing peek behind the scenes of the “Patent Applied For†pickup been attempted, but authors Mario Milan and James Finnerty will take you on a photographic tour of the genesis of the P.A.F. pickup with expert attention to every aspect of their engineering and a precise comparison and explanation of the qualities of pickups emanating from different eras. Along the way, myths are debunked, secrets revealed, and mysteries solved, which, along with an exclusive interview with Ted McCarty offer a deep and thorough analysis of that which makes these creations so uniquely special, as well as an explanation of exactly why replication has been so elusive. Well-known pickup winders offer their own diverse and individual perspectives on the reasons for such compelling and enduring appeal.

This miniature replica model honors the legacy of Gibson electric guitars. Regardless of the fact that George Harrison and Eric Clapton rocked a '6a SG Standard, that model year was clearly a standout for SGs in general. The clunky side-pull vibrato had been replaced by the dependable Maestro Vibrola. The neck profiles had increased in size, resembling the profile found on 1959 Les Pauls. And the balance, playability and look of the SG seemed to come into its own. For all those reason and many more is why we decided to create a handcrafted model afer this iconic insstrument.

The creation that would become Gibson's Les Paul guitar hit retail stores in 1952. This was Gibson's introduction to the solid body world of electric guitrs. In the early 1950s, demand for electric guitars was reaching a new customer base. Rock 'n' roll was just around the corner and ready to explode. The timing was right and Gibson took off with this idea and introduced other guitars to the Les Paul lineup. However, the new single cutaway Goldtop Les Paul Model spawned many changes in its six years of production. The wrap around and tune-o-matic bridge along with the humbucking pickup were Gibson firsts in the 1950s and still used to this day on their guitars. Early performers such as Les Paul, Freddie King, Carl Perkins and BB King can be seen in this book as early pioneers playing this model. Later years would bring a new barrage of guitarists such as David Gilmour, Paul McCartney, Les Dudek, Jeff Lynne, Danny Kirwan, Steve Hackett, Clem Clempson, Dickey Betts and more to the Les Paul Goldtop. This beautiful hardcover book tells the whole story complete with tons of full-color photos on every page.

The Gibson Les Paul Standard 1958-1960 is one of the greatest designs to emerge from Gibson. Revered by the great players of our generation, the tone and quality of these instruments have never been surpassed. The older generation of players such as Clapton, Page, Beck, and Bloomfield created the sound palette which would be further developed by Slash and Joe Walsh. Today, players such as Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Tom Bukovac, and Keith Urban are picking up the challenge and embracing the Burst. This edition contains many new Bursts to the series plus new photos of some of the great guitars featured in earlier editions. With vibrant hi-res photographs we have worked with the publisher and printer to create a stunning final edition. The Les Paul Standard continues to excite players worldwide and Gibson continues to produce new models based on the near-perfect original design.
