Looks like a Gibson Les Paul to me.

I don't know either but she's pretty fit

It appears to be a mid to late ‘90s Les Paul bass.

Definitely a Gibson

Thanks fellas.

 

Initially I thought that it was one of the Epiphone Limited Edition Les Paul Special Basses (Pitch Black) but the pickups are different as are the electronics. I didn't realise Gibson had made matt black versions.

Don't feel bad, Gibson don't know what Gibson makes half the time

It was probably meant to be gloss but... Gibson.

If you watch the video closely you'll see that it's actually gloss.

I really like First to Eleven stuff. They formed as a covers outfit during lockdown - they tour in the states as First Eleven and also have an originals band (can't remember the name)

 

Audra (for that is her name) has a beautiful voice (ok, I've watched 1 or several of their vids)

 

Don't like Coldplay?  listen to this...it might change your mind

They did, even if that isn't one.

Thats the same song with some girl singing it - if you like girl singers maybe you would like it more, but it doesn't bring anything different to the song.

I take your point that they haven't altered it, but I prefer this version

Think it's a Gibson LPB-1 circa 1990
