The new Les Paul™ Standard 50s Faded returns to the classic
design that made it relevant, played, and loved -- shaping sound
across generations and genres of music. It pays tribute to
Gibson's Golden Era of innovation and brings authenticity back to
life. The Les Paul Standard 50s features a satin nitrocellulose
lacquer finish that gives it the look and feel of a
long-treasured musical companion. It has a solid mahogany body
with an AA figured maple top and a rounded 50s-style mahogany
neck with a rosewood fingerboard and trapezoid inlays. It's
equipped with an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, an aluminum Stop Bar
tailpiece, Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, and gold
Top Hat knobs with dial pointers. The open-coil Burstbucker™ 1
(neck) and Burstbucker 2 (bridge) pickups are hand-wired to audio
taper potentiometers and Orange Drop® capacitors.
