The new Les Paul Standard 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 '60s has a solid mahogany body with an AA figured maple top and a SlimTaper 60s-style mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard and trapezoid inlays. It's equipped with a classic ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, Grover Rotomatic 'Kidney' tuners, and gold Top Hat knobs with silver reflectors. The 60s Burstbucker pickups are loaded with Alnico 5 magnets and wired to audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors.
