Product Description
The Les Paul Standard has been the flagship model in the Gibson catalogue for the last seven decades. Over the years, it has seen several design changes, most noticeably in 1961 when it shifted to the radically different double-cut design that is now known as the SG. One thing that has always remained though, is its ability to transcend musical genres and shape sound across generations. The Les Paul Standard 60s Faded returns to the classic design that first made it relevant and loved, paying tribute to Gibson's golden era of innovation.
Sporting a satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish, the Les Paul Standard 60s Faded has the look and feel of a well-loved vintage instrument. Built on the tried and tested foundation of a solid Mahogany body and AA figured Maple top, it is dynamic and resonant with sustain for days. The Mahogany neck has a SlimTaper™ 60s-style profile, adding to the vintage feel, and is topped with a silky smooth Rosewood fingerboard. At the heart of the Les Paul is a set of double-black, open-coil 60s Burstbucker pickups, with a Burstbucker 61R in the neck and Burstbucker 61T in the bridge. Other premium appointments include an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, Grover Rotomatic tuners, Orange Drop capacitors and a hardshell case.
Key Features
- Satin Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finish - Nitrocellulose is a very thin, vintage-style lacquer that ages nicely over time. The satin finish gives the guitar a played-in feel, reminiscent of a vintage instrument.
- SlimTaper™ 60s-Style Neck Profile - An ergonomic neck profile, offering a vintage playing experience, ideal for both rhythms and leads.
- Burstbucker 61R & 61T Pickups - Vintage sounding, PAF-style pickups that offer plenty of clarity and dynamics, responding to your touch and playing style. They come alive when you start adding gain whilst maintaining an airiness with lots of detail.
- ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic Bridge - Synonymous with Gibson guitars, the ABR-1 offers excellent tuning stability and intonation whilst maximising the transfer of sound energy to the pickups.
- Hardshell Case - Provides top-notch protection against bumps and dings when it's time to hit the road!
