So as soon as I got the Les Paul I had to go over all cliched and do an improvised redition of Eric Clapton’s ‘Hideaway’ from the John Mayall Bluesbreakers ‘Beano’ Album;
The first recording of a Gibson Les Paul and Marshall amp together…
I wonder if Eric knew he was creating history?
Well I don’t have a spare £300,000 to buy and original 1959 Les Paul Standard or an original Marshall JTM 45 for that matter so here goes with my 2005 Les Paul Standard and 2007 VOX AC30 CC2, overdrive as always on my videos is courtesy of my beloved Rat pedal.
I hope you enjoy. As always any comments would be much appreciated.

Encouraged by a friend to post a close-up of me playing over the studio recording.

The guitar is a 2007 Epiphone Explorer, which has the original 1958 Gibson Explorer body shape (more rounded points than the X-Plorer). Played with a Dunlop glass slide through a Fender Frontman practice amp with Boss distortion pedal.

I have never taken guitar lessons.
