The Guitar that Changed EVERYTHING for me | 16 years with my Gibson Les Paul

In this video, I'm taking you through my 16-year journey with my Gibson Les Paul. From the very first time I picked up this guitar, I felt an immediate bond with the instrument. It completely shaped my playing, my tone crafting, and in many ways, my musical creativity. I love telling the story of how my parents and grandma blessed me with this special instrument.

In my opinion, the Les Paul is the most iconic electric guitar. When I think of rock n' roll legends like Jimmy Page or Slash, I immediately picture them with a Les Paul. Heck, I knew I wanted a Les Paul from my Guitar Hero days before I even played guitar... Whether you're a Gibson Les Paul fan or just love hearing about iconic guitars, this video is for you! We'll talk about how I came to love Les Pauls, how it's influenced my playing, and how the Les Paul is an extremely versatile guitar... with tons of playing samples of course.
