Crafted With a Mahogany Body and Maple Top for Resonant Tone

Just like the vintage Les Pauls that are now the stuff of legend, the Les Paul Standard '60s is constructed with a solid mahogany body and maple top. Mahogany produces a warm, rounded tone with excellent resonance and just the right amount of brightness. The maple top adds clarity and definition to the overall voice. Together, these tonewoods yield the rich, complex sound that can only come from a Gibson Les Paul. The nitrocellulose lacquer finish allows the wood to breathe naturally, enhancing resonance for organic, woody character.

SlimTaper Neck Profile Provides Comfort and Playability

This Les Paul has a mahogany neck carved to a comfortably rounded, vintage-accurate '60s SlimTaper profile. The more slender contours make it easy to play fast leads and wrap your hand around for complex chords. Combined with the smooth rosewood fingerboard, the SlimTaper neck gives you hours of fatigue-free playing. The 12" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets are set up for speed with low, buzz-free action. You'll also appreciate the silky feel of the nitrocellulose finish on the back of the neck.

Burstbucker Pickups Emulate the PAFs of the '60s

To complete the vintage vibe, the Les Paul Standard '60s features a pair of Burstbucker 61R and 61T humbucking pickups. Modeled after Gibson's legendary PAF pickups from the late '50s through 1960s, these pickups deliver that warm, sweet tone with rich harmonics that defined the early rock guitar sound. From warm cleans to smooth overdrive, the Burstbuckers let your tone shine through. The 61R neck pickup has a slightly underwound coil for increased dynamics, while the 61T bridge pickup provides definition and presence.

Hand-Wired Electronics Enhance Tone and Playing Feel

Just like vintage Les Pauls, the electronics in the Les Paul Standard '60s are hand-wired for the ultimate in tone and responsiveness. Orange drop capacitors maintain clarity and articulation, while individual potentiometers for each pickup let you dial in your perfect tone. The hand-wired circuit preserves the humanity of your playing, responding dynamically to every subtlety of your pick attack and volume knob moves. From shimmering cleans to saturated overdrive, these electronics help your Les Paul sing.
