Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s Tobacco Burst

The Les Paul Standard 50s boasts a satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish, giving it the well-worn look and feel of a cherished instrument. Its solid mahogany body, adhering to Les Paul tradition, has no weight relief and is complemented by an AA figured carved maple cap. The figured maple not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also adds a touch of bite and brightness to the mahogany's warm tone.

The mahogany neck features a 50s Vintage-style profile that is substantial and comfortable without feeling too bulky. Its satin finish ensures smooth and fast playability. A rosewood fretboard, adorned with acrylic trapezoid inlays, is fitted with 22 medium jumbo frets, providing a smooth playing experience. With its 12" fretboard radius, the guitar accommodates both first-position chording and upper fret string bends with ease.

The Les Paul Standard 50s Faded is equipped with high-quality hardware that contributes to its renowned sustain and tuning stability. This includes an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, an aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, a Graph Tech® nut, and Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons.

The Gibson Burstbucker™ 1 (neck) and Burstbucker 2 (bridge) pickups, featuring nickel covers, are hand-wired to audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop® capacitors. Each pickup has its own volume and tone controls, featuring gold Top Hat knobs with dial pointers for precise adjustments.
