Gibson Les Paul Standard ’60s Figured Top Electric Guitar OB
The Gibson Les Paul Standard ’60s Figured Top Electric Guitar OB boasts the classic design that’s kept this solidbody electric guitar relevant.You won’t be able to take your eyes off this Les Paul Standard’s figured maple top, and its ’60s Burstbucker pickups. The Les Paul Standard ’60s Figured Top’s set mahogany neck wields Gibson’s time-tested SlimTaper profile. Its Plek’d 12-inch-radius Indian rosewood fingerboard offers playability that’s second to none.
A Graph Tech nut, ABR-1 Tune-o-matic bridge, aluminum stopbar tailpiece, and Grover Rotomatic tuners with kidney buttons round out this Les Paul Standard’s hardware. You also get single-ply body and fingerboard binding, acrylic trapezoid fingerboard inlays, a mother-of-pearl headstock logo, and a spotlight-stealing nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
Vintage PAF tone
When it comes to bottling vintage Patent Applied For (PAF) humbucker tone, nothing beats the sound of this Les Paul. These magnets, along with period-correct unmatched windings on the bobbins, capture the subtle historical variations in true humbucker tone. Plug into your favorite amp and experience smooth low-end response, complex midrange crunch, and sweet-sounding highs.
These pickups sound great clean, or they can be used to push your amp into overdrive. Under the hood, the control assembly is handwired with audio-taper potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors, ensuring you’ll hear the mellifluous voice of the Les Paul Standard ’60s Figured Top in all its glory, even when you back down your volume.
SlimTaper neck and Plek’d frets
Comfort and playability were Gibson’s primary concerns when designing the Les Paul Standard ’60s Figured Top. You’ll be delighted by how this guitar’s SlimTaper neck profile comfortably fits your hand just the right way. For your playing pleasure, the rosewood fingerboard is buffed to silky smoothness and bound with rolled edges so that no fret ends impede your dexterity. The frets are dressed to perfection using a Plek Pro machine for optimized playability. Typically reserved for top-dollar custom guitars, this process levels the frets with pinpoint precision, providing you with the most playable fretboard you’ll likely own.
Classic nitrocellulose lacquer finish
Gibson gave the Les Paul Standard ’60s Figured Top a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Nitro finishes — standard back in the day — are significantly thinner than today’s polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to “breathe.” Nitro finishes not only look amazing, but they also enhance the instrument’s tonal qualities. The Les Paul Standard ’60s Figured Top has the look and feel of a lovingly cared-for classic — one that will only improve with age.
