Les Paul Standard 50s Mahogany Top, TV Yellow
Mahogany body with mahogany top, mahogany neck with 50s vintage profile, rosewood fingerboard with trapezoid inlays, Burstbucker 1 and 2 pickups, audio taper potentiometers, Orange Drop capacitors and hardshell case
A new take on an old favorite
The Les Paul™ Standard 50s Mahogany Top retains 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 Mahogany Top has a solid mahogany body with a mahogany top replacing the usual maple top. This is similar to certain Les Paul Customs, many of which also feature all-mahogany bodies, and results in a slightly warmer, more mid-focused tone. Everything you love about the Les Paul Standard 50s remains the same, including the mahogany neck with a rounded 50s Vintage profile with a rosewood fingerboard and trapezoid inlays. It is also equipped with an ABR-1, the classic-style Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, an aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, and black Top Hat knobs. The Burstbucker™ 1 (neck) and Burstbucker 2 (bridge) pickups are equipped with Alnico 2 magnets and wired to audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop™ capacitors. A hardshell case completes the package.
