Gibson is the king of the guitar world, having produced countless legendary instruments.
It is beloved by countless top artists, including Jimmy Page, Slash, and Zakk Wylde.
The Les Paul model, released by Gibson in 1952, was Gibson's first solid-body guitar and debuted as the signature model for American guitarist Les Paul.
The signature fat tone and long sustain of the Les Paul have been cherished by countless artists, enriching the music scene across various genres from its debut to the present day.
It truly represents the quintessential electric guitar model.
This model is an LPJ featuring a simple look.
Costs have been successfully reduced by changing the logo material, adopting a non-binding specification, and using a matte finish.
The body top is Maple, the body back is Mahogany.
The plain-grained Maple finish creates a subdued, understated look.
The neck is Mahogany, the fingerboard is Rosewood – a traditional combination.
It features Gibson 490R and 98T pickups.
While inspired by the classic PAF humbucker, they deliver a more modern, powerful sound.
The bridge combines a Tune-O-Matic with a stop tailpiece, accommodating various playing styles.
While keeping the visual cost down, the sound delivers a full Gibson character.
It could be a great choice as your first Gibson.
