John you need to put a tag line, REVIEW of K-LINE KL59, so that search engines find these videos.

[ksharpe]

Your Chris's no. 1 Salesman, he Values YOU as do all of US. IF he wants to see instruments being played, you are the Fellow to show them for sure.

Gibson and Fender should not get a “pass” from continuing to improve their offerings. I’m glad other brands keep pushing the envelope. I need to get my hands on a K-Line at some point. Thanks John!

I have to 'make do' with my Standard 60's unburst.... Feels and sounds perfectly good to me!

[joemiller]

K-Line LP sounds amazing and I bet it plays and feels great to play as well!

[sacredgeometry]

I know you dont like it so much but I will say it again and again. Your playing style sounds best with this guitar.

[jimmcdougall]

Beautiful piece of music that, and I think the guitar sounds lovely. But… I wouldn’t trade my Tokai LC for anything.

[johnplaystheguitar]

Thats great. I was the biggest enabler of saying get rid of the les paul. you won't miss it. K-Line is better.

I have an Edwards (ESP) “Jimmy page” model. (it was reliced by them to a pretty accurate and border line obsessed level). The bevel and depth of the top carve are deeper and more accurate to the originals - I’ve been fortunate enough to fondle a couple of actual examples- and the weight is under 7.5lbs. It also has all the push pull in/out of phase, series/parallel, coil split option anxiety for noise choices. Pickups are also insanely hot. (I think it was their way of compensating for the coil splitting)

What they TOTALLY missed was: The frets were VERY accurate… IF you wanted a period correct “Black Beauty” set. Super low super low and flat. Also, the neck inlays were about as blue as the crack on breaking bad…

Those issues have been corrected. (No nibs either. Who cares?) Soo…. For a guitar I bought for 800 USD in a parking lot then spent the bread on a fret job and inlays… It’s some of the best money I’ve ever spent.

i have a bacchus bls 59 which is made in japan, its easily as good as a gibson standard. definitely a keeper.

I have one of the origial KLS90 (Jr. Copy) from Chris's first run of them. I have tried to sell it previously and the more I play it, the more I absolutely love it. Incredibly resonant with a lollar. Chris is also amazing to deal with.

[johnwelk]

I've been trying to refrain from picking one up, they look so nice

[csharp]

I have two LPs and I’m going for a gold top in 2025. I’ll let my Gibsons go when I’m dead. Same for my 335, tele and Strat.

[jltrem]

My question is why isn't JNC on K-Line's artist page?

[KristopherCraig]

I was wondering about that one. It looks like it would feel great. I’m guessing it might be a little lighter and better balanced.

[CG-gpbh]

Some of the best lead tones I’ve heard you have

[willhaylock]

Sounds more like an SG unplugged - maybe because the body is so light compared to a heavier Gibson Les Paul or maybe that's just Youtube audio

[ericwillett]

Hey John,
Absolutely love the sound of that K-line and the overall tone you have been using lately between this guitar and your D-style amps. And I love your new album on Spotify. I love my Les Paul guitar with my D-style pedals for my lead tone. Anyway, I was really stricken by that opening rhythm playing and loop and realized I have been focusing on my lead playing so much the last couple years in searching for that perfect Dumble lead tone that my rhythm chops have really deteriorated. Could you please do a lesson on your approach to your rhythm playing and loops that you jam and play lead over. And as much as I loved the Pettrucci style playing on your first album your new album reflects your current playing style the last few years and is the style of music I listen to and compose. Thank you
Eric

Never tried Marceau Guitars ? They look perfect

[tonystartup]
