Does it need to be vintage to be great? Hell no!
Case in point: this reissue Gibson Custom 1957 Les Paul TV Junior VOS, on loan from my buddy @tomgibson3783, is one of those guitars that makes me sound good even on my worst day. And when the guitar helps me sound good I actually play better.

HELLO I AM A GUITAR NERD AND ALSO A JRWI NERD HERES WHAT KIND OF ELECTRIC GUITAR I THINK ALBATRIO WOULD PLAY AND WHY
Ok so for chip I knew it was going to be red. Obviously. Like his whole design is red. And I have been so obsessed with red Gibson les Pauls at the moment and I just thought it fit him so well so I went looking for one with gold accents
And I found this absolutely beautiful red and gold gibson les paul and god do I want my hands on that. This is such a chip guitar oh my god just the vibes are so him I don’t even know how to explain it. The red, black, and gold is so much like his swords as well
Now for Jay for a while I thinking an orange stratocaster would suit her and eventually I started looking at blue telecasters and I was very set in that for a while. I was originally leaning toward the telecaster because to me they just look very rigid and uniformed with the straight lines and I was thinking this kinda fit with the whole ex navy thing. However, since she obviously isn’t part of the navy anymore I found myself wanting something different but I wasn’t quite sure.
Now I’ve never played a Yamaha or been very interested in them at all, but I saw a couple Yamaha sg-800s in Johnny Marr’s book and I just knew it fit Jay. Everything about it is perfect. The blue and the gold accents to match her eyes. The shape. If you can’t imagine Jay Ferin playing this guitar you are lying to me.
Last but not least: Gillion. Choosing a guitar for Gillion was something I had a very hard time with. There was so many possibilities for colour and type and for a while I was quite stuck. I thought about teal and blue and even white before I eventually landed on yellow, thinking it matched the gold accents on his new design.
I’ve always been intrigued by jaguars and jazzmasters for their odd shape and I’ve always wanted to play one to see how it would feel. One day it just clicked for me that this yellow jazzmaster was the guitar for Gillion. The funky shape just feels so him. I was very torn on wether to pick a Jaguar or a jazzmaster as they look so similar, but I decided on a jazzmaster because of their whole thing with low notes and that just felt very Gillion to me.
THANK YOU FOR COMING TO MY TED TALK

To be honest; I think that the song 'Welcome To The Jungle' has the coolest intro ever.

... sound of rebellion ...
Greeny is a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard, named after its first famous owner, Peter Green in 1964-65. He used it during his time in John Mayall and Fleetwood Mac before selling it to Gary Moore in the early 1970s. Moore used the guitar throughout his career, both as a solo artist and in bands. Due to financial troubles, he was forced to sell it in 2006, after which it passed through several private collectors and guitar dealers. In 2014, Greeny was acquired by Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett, who has since used it both in the studio and during live performances.
Renembering Gary Moore who would be 72 today .... gone too soon
