Random internet guy playing a 1960 DC Special.

Here is a clip of me playing my only vintage Gibson, a 1960 DC Special.
On a certain fret it really sings. Is that the "Bloom" everyone is talking about
When it comes to vintage Gibsons?

Very nice woody tone :dude:.

But, you should play this axe through some 60s Marshall to get even better results.

Thanks, Prog! A vintage Marshall would be nice but I am just a bedroom player, even though I made it to the living room in the clip above!

May be the best I can recall hearing the Class 5 sounding. Never cared for any demos I've heard but this makes me want to try one out. Very nice.

Thank you all for the kind comments!
Regarding the Marshall, I have an old Ibanez Fat Cat distorsion in there too!

Nope, that's just ordinary feedback.

The class5 heads with a good speaker can sound very good !
