How to setup your Les Paul (Beginner guide)

This is a very basic setup guide - you don't need anything special (well, maybe an 8mm socket for the truss rod!) and this is actually universal, for any fixed bridge guitar! You may have seen from my previous videos that I have recently reunited with my Gibson Les Paul Classic. I have revealed the guitar, restored her to former glory (yes, a deep clean and bringing her back to life!), and now comes the setup! The guitar was subject to moisture and definitely needs some time. If (like this one was) your guitar is sat and stored for years, when you put a new set of strings on, just let it stand for 12-14hours before playing, just to give the neck a chance to load. I had loosened the strings for storage (and flying) but not so that they were hanging loose. Check out the timestamps below. In short, the 4 steps I use are tuning, truss rod / neck relief, action, and intonation. 00:00 Intro 00:21 The 4 main steps (to setup!) 01:46 Step 1 - Tune up 01:48 Step 2 - Truss Rod 02:42 Neck Close Ups (Gibson vs Epiphone) 03:11 Back 2 Step 2 03:24 Truss adjustment 03:46 Before and After 04:10 Step 3 - Action 05:47 Checks 07:00 Step 4 - Intonation 08:35 Outro (final tips and thoughts) #guitar #setup #howto
