2016 GIBSON LES PAUL TRADITIONAL - Lightbst
Brand new 2016 Gibson Les Paul Traditional - Lightburst. Un-played, not been a demo in a store, genuine made in USA.
Looks like Gibson has finally come to their senses and dropped all the gimmicky garbage they were doing to the Les Paul Traditional in 2015. No autotune, no LP hologram on the back of the headstock, no stupid brass floating nut, no cartoon looking les paul signature on the head stock.
Two of Gibson's best-loved humbuckers - a '57 Classic in the neck position, and a '57 Classic Plus in the bridge - give the Traditional the power, punch, and clarity of Gibson's legendary PAF pickups. Other traditional appointments include vintage-style Gibson speed knobs, classic Kluson-style tuners by TonePros, which offer period-correct looks with a higher tuning ratio, and a chrome Nashville Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar.
An un-chambered mahogany body with traditional weight-relief holes for a beefy tone that maintains the resonance of modern Les Pauls. The body is capped with a carved maple top and the hand fitted neck tenon sports the rounded, C-shape profile common on the Les Pauls of the '80s and '90s.
Includes Gibson Hard Shell Case.
