The Gibson Les Paul is legendary and the Standard '50s reissue goes back in time!

The Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's Heritage Cherry Sunburst returns to the classic design that made the Les Paul so incredibly popular, loved and legendary. It's still incredible to this day how this guitar has shaped the sound of multiple generations and genres. And this model has never lost its relevance. The Gibson Les Paul Standard 50's pays homage to Gibson's Golden Era of innovation, convincingly bringing the authenticity of these vintage instruments back to life without having to take out a second mortgage. The Les Paul Standard 50's has a solid mahogany (mahogany) body with a beautiful maple (maple) top, a Vintage 50 mahogany neck with a rosewood (rosewood) fingerboard and - of course - the Acrylic Trapezoids inlay. In terms of hardware, no concessions have been made either, and the choice has been made for the ABR-1, also known as the classic Tune-O-Matic bridge, in combination with an aluminum stopbar tailpiece. The so-called Gibson Deluxe tuners with keystone knobs complete the whole, together with the aged tophat controls. The Burstbucker 1 (neck) and Burstbucker 2 (bridge) pickups - which are equipped with AlNiCo II magnets - are the absolute icing on the cake, because these pickups very convincingly recreate the old-fashioned PAF sound. Includes luxury case.
