The Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's Figured Top Translucent oxblood features an ABR-1 Bridge from Custom Shop models, vintage-style Kluson machineheads, and Burstbucker 1 and 2 pickups with vintage-voiced Alnico II magnets for that classic Gibson sound. Offering a traditional 50's style fatter neck carve, the guitar is built with classic Gibson tonewoods: a Mahogany body and neck with a Figured Maple top. Audio Taper pots provide smooth volume transitions and electronics are no longer PCB mounted.
The guitar is made with the winning formula that the Les Paul is known for. The solid Mahogany body is topped with Figured Maple. This classic combo gives you an undeniably beautiful aesthetic, not to mention jaw-dropping sustain, weighty lows and a timeless top-end sparkle.
In keeping with tradition, the neck is also Mahogany, in this case using a rounded ‘50s-style profile. Combined with a Rosewood fingerboard and Trapezoid inlays, it feels, looks and sounds every bit as classic as you’d expect.
Gibson have loaded the ‘50s Standard with Burstbuckers featuring Alnico II magnets. These magnets are known for their PAF-style sound; combined with the Mahogany & Maple duo and handwired electronics with Orange Drop capacitors, the Burstbuckers deliver that singing Les Paul tone that’s inspired guitarists for generations.
The hardware has been carefully selected to echo the classic Les Paul blueprint. Vintage Deluxe tuners & Amber Top Hat knobs are among the notable features, with Nickel plating and luxurious binding perfectly tells the story of an iconic instrument.
The Burstbucker Humbuckers on the ‘50s standard have a warmer output featuring Alnico II magnets producing that classic PAF-style sound. Rich and warm in tone, these pickups give you a beefy low-end and clear mid-range, whilst being able to handle clarity in overdriven gain when turned up to the max.
