Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s Double Trouble Electric Guitar, Vintage Cherry Sunburst
In a brilliant flash of inspiration, we're treated to the vintage styles and rich tones of the Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s Double Trouble. This limited release from Gibson touches upon some rarely-seen elements of the Gibson canon for an inspired model top to bottom. If you're on the hunt for rare Gibson feature sets, stay tuned.
This Les Paul Standard 50s Double Trouble starts out with some more classic features and functions from the brand. For one, this Les Paul's classic single-cutaway body takes its shape from solid, non-weight-relieved mahogany paired with a AA figured maple cap for brightness and a crisp tone right off the bat. This body is treated to the first of the Double Trouble's tricks – a full-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
Differing from traditional Les Paul Standards with their standard gloss finish, the full-gloss finish imparts a more lived-in quality right out of the case with an overall faded impression. The full gloss nitrocellulose finish does wonders in subtly shifting the essence of this Les Paul Standard towards an inherently vintage aesthetic while each guitar's burst pattern is somewhat varied for a one-of-a-kind look piece to piece.
Carrying on from there, a mahogany neck takes shape with a '50s Vintage profile. This classic grip in hand pairs with a rosewood fingerboard bearing twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets for a smooth and seamless feel across the palm and on the fingers. Acrylic trapezoid inlays punctuate the rosewood for an iconic visual addition. Effortlessly playable across its entire scale, this Les Paul Standard 50s Double Trouble is anything but when it comes to maneuvering and exploring its musical scope.
Sonically, the Double Trouble comes alive with the addition of two Gibson Burstbucker pickups – a Burstbucker 1 in the neck and a Burstbucker 2 in the bridge. These rich humbuckers play with exceptional warmth, clarity, and grit for pushing your best tube amp over the edge, should that be your prerogative. Sharp-eyed readers might notice something special about these pickups. These Burstbuckers are fitted with Double Classic White bobbins – a definite rarity when it comes to Gibson pickup bobbin color combinations. Hand-wired with Orange Drop capacitors and audio taper potentiometers, an authentic Gibson humbucking experience is ready to go at a moment's notice.
Concerning the finishing touches of this Double Trouble, this Gibson comes equipped with a Graph Tech nut and Vintage Deluxe with Keystone button tuning machines for easy stringing alongside a nickel-plated ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and an aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece. Traveling with an included Gibson hardshell case, this guitar is road ready. This Les Paul Standard 50s Double Trouble is limited to five hundred pieces worldwide.
Wrapped up in unique Gibson style, this Les Paul Standard doubles (or triples) up on Gibson style and substance for a truly one-of-a-kind limited piece.
