Gibson Les Paul Classic Electric Guitar
A hotter, faster, more gorgeous LP than you've ever played before!
All the sumptuous ingredients that made the Les Paul great are here in spades: a skillfully carved maple top on a mahogany back perfectly joined to a mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard, all powered by a 496R ceramic humbucker in the front and a 500T at the bridge. And the Classic goes a few steps farther with green tuning keys, amber top-hat knobs, plain cream pickguard, true '60s slim-tapered neck and anvil mother-of-pearl fretboard inlays. Gold hardware on ebony; nickel hardware with all other finishes. Includes hardshell case.
