Alex, what's the rule of 18?

Sent from my SM-N910C using Tapatalk

"Gibson's "old rule of 18" calculation was used since the late 19th century.
Used on all 50's 24 3/4" scale models.
I got the measurements from 3 late 50's LP's. All were the same.
It does not affect tonality... but it's vintage correct (-;
It's in my thread BTW."

Response of Gil Yaron back in 2011.

Bet you guys heard that from me first... heh heh

Here is the Gil Yaron now with real PAFs.

Let me just say the Gil Yaron and this R9 are the best Les Pauls I have played PLUS MIks other Gil Yaron. (Take note that I have tested and played 3 real bursts and they are not even close to these guitars)  The R8 I believe will be close after I change the pickups.  For the 'old' Les Paul sound definitely the Gil Yaron and for the newer aggressive Les Paul sound its the the R9.

Uy, this statement can be interpreted both ways ah. On the perspective of the real bursts, the replicas are far off in copping their characteristics. On the perspective of the replicas naman, they might have better characteristics and you might have tried inferior real bursts.

Anyway, I'm personally not after how near or far they are from the characteristics of superior real bursts, but it's fun to know how they fare. At the end of the day, if the guitar meets (better if it surpasses) your expectations then it's all good.

So, WTF?  Is there such a distinction?  Yes.  The Gil Yaron's fret placement follows the Rule of 18 which Gibson used in the 50s.  The newer Les Pauls from  I think the 60s to this day follow the now accepted fret placement as used by everybody else.  Thus the Gil Yaron with 1959 PAFs will do the 'old' sound in a new guitar bit while the R9 will do the modern stuff with distortion.  I don't understand why Gibson could not invest on the tooling for the Rule of 18 for their Historics today.  On the other hand, it might just complicate their production process but who knows now that the old guys are gone.

In terms of copping off the characteristics of real bursts, that was not what I meant.  What I meant was that these 3 real bursts I tried were dead sounding despite having the so called mojo for being vintage instruments.  They looked cool but sounded bad.  I am NOT saying that there are no good sounding bursts but in my experience, even new guitars are up there with the old ones when it comes to hiyaw.
I guess with regards to expectations, my expectations for guitars are higher than most.  Its a gift really and I can use that gift without any bias.

Cables with Neutrik jacks. Totally recommending Neutrik - all cables I've owned that had Neutrik jacks had the cables fail first before the jacks themselves. Been able to reuse jacks on new cables.

Used sir. Medyo madumi lang yung labas when i got it from tom. Pero pristine yung loob ng case. Got it for 1/3 the price posted in ebay. I know he's not popular here but i've bought a few good items from him at fair price.
