Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s Faded Vintage Honey Burst Electric Guitar with Case

General

Plucked out of the '50s and firmly planted in the present, the Gibson Original Collection Les Paul Faded 50s single-cut boasts an old-school neck profile and a pair of Burstbucker pickups. To offer you that authentic '50s playing feel, the mahogany body has been solidly set into the slim Vintage 50s mahogany neck, which has been finished with a 12 inch radius rosewood fretboard and 22 medium jumbo frets to support breakneck-speed licks.

The Les Paul Faded '50s: Burstbucker Pickups

As expected, Gibson have gone for maple top which not only lends the acoustic sound a touch of sonic warmth but mid-rich tone with just enough definition. Loaded with two open-coil double-coil Burstbucker pickups - where the 1-version in the bridge position shapes a rock-ready sound with rough edges and the 2-version at the neck sounds a touch sweeter - the Les Paul Standard Faded '50s has been fully prepped to deliver beefy, '50s-style humbucker sound fleshed out with extra trebles.

Traditional High-Quality Hardware

This Gibson LP solid-body has also been equipped with four time-tested audio taper potentiometers with Orange Drop capacitors backing up the double volume and tone pots, while high-quality hardware, including an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, an Aluminum Stop Bar and six Vintage Deluxe Keystone tuners, guarantee excellent tuning stability and intonation. As a welcome bonus, this Original Collection model comes wrapped up inside a Gibson-made hardshell case as standard.
