What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Mahogany body Rich, warm, focused sound; added sustain
Mahogany neck Great sustain, strength, and warm tone
Maple top Long sustain with crisp, bright tone
Gibson '57 Classic humbucking pickups Vintage PAF feel; warmth, depth and distinct edge

The Les Paul Traditional wraps several crucial features into a classic Les Paul that always just seemed right, echoing the specs of guitars that rocked the world through the 1980s and '90s. The Les Paul Traditional's tonewood combination retains the great sound of the original Les Paul Standard, with an unchambered back for a thick, meaty tone and superb sustain. Its rounded late-'50s neck shape reflects one of the most popular profiles ever used on a Les Paul.

The Les Paul Traditional is built on a foundation of the same traditional tonewood combination that helped to make the Les Paul Standard legendary when it first arrived six decades ago. A carved solid maple top lends bite and articulation to the sound while looking great in the process, and a solid, mahogany back without weight relief contributes superb warmth and depth. A quarter-sawn, Grade-A mahogany neck is glued in and carved in a comfortably rounded late-'50s profile that measures .900" at the 1st fret and 1.00" at the 12th, and topped with a bound Grade-A rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets and traditional trapezoid inlays. Traditional touches include cream body and fingerboard binding, pickguard, and pickup rings, along with gold Speed Knobs with dial pointers.

This Les Paul Traditional is the real deal.Truthfully it's better than my 58 reissue. Fantastic sustain for days great tone. The neck is in between the 58 rounded and the slim tapper and very comfortable. Hand wired with 500k pots & the lemon burst on a plain top is beautiful. This is like having a cross breed of a 58 & a 59 Les Paul without breaking the bank. You will not find a better les paul for the price. This is my dream guitar I've always wanted. The Jimmy Page, The pearly gates and more.
