The Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s Heritage in Cherry Sunburst brings back everything that made the original late-'50s Les Pauls so legendary. At Sims Music, we've always loved the classic feel and unmistakable sound of a great Les Paul, and this model stays true to the design that helped shape generations of music. The solid mahogany body and maple top deliver that familiar combination of warmth, punch, and sustain, while the rounded '50s-style mahogany neck offers a substantial, comfortable feel for players who appreciate a more traditional Gibson neck profile. The beautiful Cherry Sunburst finish, rosewood fingerboard, and classic trapezoid inlays complete the timeless look.
A pair of calibrated Burstbucker 1 and Burstbucker 2 pickups with Alnico II magnets give this Les Paul plenty of vintage-inspired character, from warm, expressive cleans to thick, singing lead tones and crunchy rock rhythms. Hand-wired controls with Orange Drop capacitors offer responsive tone shaping, while the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, and Vintage Deluxe tuners with keystone buttons keep things true to the original design. It's a guitar that captures the spirit of Gibson's golden era without feeling like a museum piece. Like every new guitar at Sims Music, this Les Paul receives a complete professional setup from our team before shipping, so it's ready to play when it arrives.
