Gibson Les Paul Standard ‘50s Plain Top Electric Guitar, Ebony

Gibson Les Paul Standard ‘50s Plain Top Electric Guitar, Ebony

The Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s pays a dynamic tribute to its vintage origins while infusing a touch of timeless allure. For 2023, Gibson has launched a new offering of solid finish options for the Les Paul Standard. In a world where modern features often overshadow the essence of classic craftsmanship, this model beckons us to revisit the very heart of the Les Paul's inception.

The Les Paul Standard ‘50s is most certainly back in black, with this model featuring a sleek and sophisticated Ebony finish. Complementing this classic look are aged gold “Top Hat” style knobs, cream plastics, and nickel pickup covers.

The Les Paul's immediate impression of robustness and craftsmanship remains an enduring hallmark. The Les Paul Standard '50s is no exception, with its foundation grounded in a non-weight relieved Mahogany body, crowned by a single-ply bound plain Maple top. The Mahogany neck features the iconic '50s style carve, while the 22-fret Indian Rosewood fingerboard elegantly showcased with classic Acrylic Trapezoid inlays.

In terms of electronics, the Les Paul Standard 50s is equipped with a Gibson Burstbucker 1 in the neck position and Burstbucker 2 in the bridge position. These humbucking pickups, a favorite among countless Gibson enthusiasts, are fitted with Alnico 2 magnets, imparting a warm, vintage-inspired tone. The electronics feature the deluxe touch of Orange Drop capacitors, hand-wired to each pickup's volume and tone circuits, enhancing the guitar's tonal versatility and character.

Completing the Les Paul Standard '50s is the reliable ABR-1 Tune-o-Matic bridge and aluminum stop bar tailpiece, ensuring impeccable intonation and unwavering tuning stability.

Honoring the legacy of players, both past and present, the Les Paul Standard '50s stands as a testament to the enduring charm of the electric guitar. It embodies the timeless allure of the Les Paul, offering rich, classic tones and unparalleled craftsmanship. The Gibson Les Paul Standard ‘50s is the ideal choice for any player seeking an instrument that artfully combines vintage elegance with modern playability.
