Gibson Les Paul battle Vintage vs Modern (1978, 1980, 1981, 2002, 2007, 2012, 2014)

There is a lot of love&hate going on regarding Gibson Les Paul. Some people love old Norlin era guitars, other say that modern gibson is way better and try so specs of golden era Les Pauls from 50-60's.
I recorded some video comparison between old 1978, 1980, 1981 Les Paul and modern custom shop builds from 2002, 2007, 2012, 2014 so everybody can hear them side by side.

All guitars recorded straight to Diezel Herbert with Diezel and Marshall 412 cabs. some effects done later in post proceeding, mostly it's Eventide H3000
