Gibson Les Paul Standard Faded '50s, Vintage Honey Burst Overview
A Classic, Reborn in Satin
The new Les Paul Standard 50s Faded returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played, and loved–shaping sound across generations and genres of music. It pays tribute to Gibson’s Golden Era of innovation and brings authenticity back to life. The Les Paul Standard 50s features a satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish that gives it the look and feel of a long-treasured musical companion. It has a solid mahogany body with an AA figured maple top and a rounded 50s-style mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard and trapezoid inlays. It’s equipped with an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, an aluminium Stop Bar tailpiece, Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, and gold Top Hat knobs with dial pointers. The open-coil BurstBucker 1 and BurstBucker 2 pickups are hand-wired to audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors.
