The new Les Paul™ Standard 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 has a solid mahogany body with a maple
top and a rounded 50s-style mahogany neck with a rosewood
fingerboard and trapezoid inlays. It's equipped with an ABR-1,
the classic-style Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, an aluminum Stop Bar
tailpiece, Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, and aged
gold Top Hat knobs. The calibrated Burstbucker™ 1 (neck) and
Burstbucker 2 (bridge) pickups are loaded with Alnico 2 magnets
and wired with audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop®
capacitors.
