Les Paul electric guitar in the style of the fifties
The Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s Figured Top Translucent Fuchsia embodies the visual and tonal ideals of the 1950s. As such, this electric guitar is the perfect instrument for blues and rock. With its traditional construction, featuring a solid mahogany body without weight relief, a stunning maple top, and a rounded mahogany neck, it offers top-class sounds thanks to the iconic Gibson Burstbucker pickups, delivering unmistakable vintage character. The hardware, including the tried-and-tested Tune-O-Matic bridge and Vintage Deluxe tuners, rounds out the Gibson Les Paul Standard in classic style.
Proven features from the 1950s and a chic finish on the curly maple top make the Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s Figured Top Translucent Fuchsia a real eye-catcher with a vintage sound.
The round "Vintage '50s" neck and the non-weight-reduced mahogany body of the LP Standard '50s are glued together in the classic way.
Traditionally built Les Paul
The traditional build of the Les Paul focuses on achieving an authentic playing feel and a naturally vintage sound. Beneath the Translucent Fuchsia finish, you’ll find a glued mahogany neck, paired with a solid mahogany body (without weight relief) and a curly maple top. The rounded “Vintage 50s” neck profile is perfectly suited for executing classic blues and rock playing techniques on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.
Gibson Burstbucker 1 and Burstbucker 2 Alnico II humbuckers with PAF genes promise authentic blues and rock sounds with a vintage touch.
Gibson Burstbucker pickups
For the Les Paul Standard '50s, Gibson has chosen a set of Burstbucker pickups, which carry the legacy of the legendary PAF humbuckers. Featuring Alnico II magnets and unpotted coils, the pickups deliver airy, vintage sounds with a vocal midrange and lively dynamics through the guitar amp. These pickups shine in classic blues and rock styles, with the bridge pickup producing a harmonic overdrive that’s assertive yet balanced. The hand-wired circuit, complete with individual volume and tone controls for each pickup and "Orange Drop" capacitors, allows for precise tonal adjustments.
Vintage Deluxe tuners with keystone flights keep the Les Paul Standard '50s securely in tune.
Vintage-style hardware
To complete the Les Paul Standard '50s Figured Top Translucent Fuchsia, Gibson equips it with hardware that's been trusted since the Fifties. The lightweight aluminum stopbar guides the strings over the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, which offers precise adjustment for both intonation and string action. At the headstock, the strings pass over a Graph Tech nut to the vintage-style Deluxe tuners, which not only keep the guitar securely in tune but also add to the historic look with their single-ring keystone wings.
