Gibson Les Paul Std Wine Red
The Gibson Les Paul standard is part of the iconic Les Paul range and utilises a single cut-away Mahogany body with an arched Maple top and a Mahogany set-neck and Rosewood fret board.
A Les Paul standard spurns a slightly slimmer than usual 60’s type tapered neck with trapezoidal pearloid fret inlays complete with Iveroid binding that covers the ends of the frets. A secondary option on this model is to order the 1950’s style slightly fatter, rounded neck if that is preferred by the user.
This instrument has two pick ups - one each at the neck and bridge positions these are the Burstbucker Pro model with Alnico V magnets, each of them have their own tone and volume controls. The bridge is the standard chrome tune-o-matic type with a stop-bar tailpiece that’s also chrome plated, other hardware includes chrome plated de-luxe Gibson machine heads with nylon green keys.
Both of the nickel plated pick-ups have cream coloured plastic surrounds and on the shoulder of the guitar sits a 3 way pick-up selector switch, the guitar body has a single ply cream binding around the edge. The headstock has 3 machine heads on each side and adorns the Gibson logo along with Les Paul’s embossed signature in gold, there’s also a bell shaped plastic truss rod cover.
The instrument comes complete with a Gibson hard case with the silver “Gibson USA” logo down the side.
