Les Paul electric guitar with fifties style

The Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s Lefthand Gold Top embodies the visual and tonal ideals of the legendary "Burst" Les Pauls of the 1950s. Accordingly, the electric guitar turns out to be the perfect instrument for Blues and rock. While the traditional construction is based on a mahogany body without weight relief, the obligatory maple top and a pleasantly rounded mahogany neck, Gibson Burstbucker pickups provide top-class sounds with an unmistakable vintage character. Last but not least, Gibson's Les Paul Standard '50s Gold top is completed by the hardware equipment with Tune-O-Matic bridge and Vintage Deluxe tuners that has been tried and tested since the Fifties.

Traditionally built Les Paul

The traditional construction of the Les Paul pays particular attention to an authentic playing feel and a natural vintage sound. Under the nitrocellulose finish, a glued mahogany neck is used in addition to the solid mahogany body without weight relief and the maple top. The pleasantly rounded "Vintage 50s" neck profile creates the best conditions for implementing 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

As the pickup for the Les Paul Standard '50s, Gibson has chosen a set of the popular Burstbucker pickups, which carry the genes of the legendary PAF humbuckers. Equipped with Alnico II magnets and unpaired coils, the pickups elicit airy, light Vintage sounds with a vocal mid-range spectrum and lively dynamics from the guitar amp, whose métier is the classic styles of Blues and rock. The more powerful bridge pickup elicits a harmonic Overdrive with well-dosed assertiveness from the amplifier. The hand-wired circuit with individual volume and tone pots for each pickup and "Orange Drop" capacitors allows precise adjustment of the guitar sound.

Vintage-style hardware

Last but not least, Gibson completes the Les Paul Standard '50s Gold Top with the hardware equipment that has been established since the fifties. The lightweight aluminum stopbar guides the strings over the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, whose adjustment options guarantee precise intonation and a comfortable string action. At the headstock, the strings run over a Graph Tech nut to the precise vintage Deluxe tuners, which not only keep the electric guitar securely in tune, but also support the historic look with single-ring keystone wings.
