Specifications

Body:

  • Top: Plain maple, showcasing a subtle, natural grain that emphasizes a more understated aesthetic compared to flame tops. This "Plain Top" offers a minimalist, vintage appeal, perfect for those who appreciate classic beauty.
  • Body Wood: Solid mahogany, a staple in the Les Paul construction, known for its warmth, depth, and sustain. The weight of the mahogany body contributes to the guitar’s legendary tonal heft and resonance.
  • Binding: Single-ply cream binding around the body top adds a touch of elegance, framing the natural wood grain.

Neck:

  • Material: Mahogany, ensuring a rich, resonant tone that complements the warmth of the body.
  • Profile: 1960s slim taper, ideal for players who prefer a thinner, faster neck. This neck profile is known for providing a sleek, comfortable feel, making it excellent for both rhythm and lead playing.
  • Scale Length: 24.75” (628.65mm), the traditional Gibson scale, known for its easy bending and warm, rounded tone.
  • Fingerboard: Rosewood, featuring 22 medium-jumbo frets. The rosewood fretboard provides a smooth, warm response, adding a layer of richness to the guitar’s tonal character.
  • Inlays: Classic trapezoid inlays, a signature Gibson feature, offering both style and functionality for easy navigation along the fretboard.
  • Nut Width: 1.695" (43mm), a standard width that provides a comfortable string spacing for most players.
  • Binding: Single-ply cream binding on the neck, enhancing the vintage aesthetic.

Pickups:

  • Neck Pickup: 490R Alnico II humbucker, known for its smooth, warm tone with vintage PAF-style output. This pickup excels at producing creamy cleans and lush, overdriven tones.
  • Bridge Pickup: 498T Alnico V humbucker, delivering a more aggressive, higher output tone, perfect for driving amplifiers into rich distortion. The 498T offers clarity and punch, making it ideal for rock and blues.

Electronics:

  • Controls:
    • 2 Volume knobs (one for each pickup)
    • 2 Tone knobs (one for each pickup)
    • 3-way toggle switch for selecting between neck, bridge, or both pickups.
    • The control layout allows for a wide range of tonal combinations, from mellow, jazzy neck tones to searing bridge pickup leads.

Hardware:

  • Bridge: Tune-O-Matic bridge, offering precise intonation and easy string height adjustments. This bridge design, paired with the stopbar tailpiece, enhances the sustain and resonance that Les Pauls are known for.
  • Tailpiece: Stopbar tailpiece, known for its contribution to sustain and tuning stability.
  • Tuners: Vintage-style Kluson tuners, with a smooth, reliable performance and a classic look.
  • Hardware Finish: Chrome, complementing the overall vintage aesthetic while offering durability.

Finish:

  • Top Finish: Gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, which not only enhances the beauty of the wood but also allows the guitar to "breathe," improving the tonal qualities as it ages. This type of finish is prized for how it wears over time, giving the guitar a natural relic appearance.

Additional Features:

  • Weight: 4,5 kg
  • Year of Manufacture: 1996, a period known for its high-quality production, combining vintage accuracy with modern craftsmanship.
  • Case: Comes with a hard shell Gibson case, offering superior protection for the instrument.
