Description
From Our Catalog
Guitar legend Les Paul and Gibson teamed up in 1952 to produce the guitar that set the standard for solidbody electrics. The 2002 Standard sports the smaller, vintage style headstock and plastic "keystone" tuner buttons and is available with a "fat," rounded 50's style neck or a "fast," slim taper 60's style neck.

The Standard is outfitted with the new Burstbucker V pickups with Alnico V magnets producing slightly more output than any previous Standard pickups with more bite and a seductive "airy" tone with both pickups on.

The Les Paul Standard is still the Industry Standard Now available with Desertburst, Honeyburst, Lightburst, Trans Amber, Wine Red, and Heritage Cherry Sunburst finishes. Features smaller, vintage style headstock and plastic "keystone" tuners.

"Great Guitar"
A Fantastic Guitar. The Burstbucker V pickups are wonderful. My other Les Paul has a slim-taper next which is a little better suited to my hands, but the tone from this guitar is wonderful. Great top. The only draw back is that it is very, very heavy.
