Built from maple-topped mahogany and loaded with '57 Classic and Super '57 humbuckers, this guitar gives you the thick, sustaining tone with focused mid frequencies and stinging highs that Les Pauls are famous for.
This Les Paul Classic's adjustable, patent-pending Zero Fret Nut, will provide you with an ultra-comfortable ride every time your fingers dance up and down this guitar's mahogany SlimTaper neck.
I have taken pictures of the several imperfections caused by gigging so there are no surprises when you inspect it in person.
What it has is:
1 Neck Volume Pot with a Pull Option for coil split.
1 Bridge Volume Pot with a Pull Option for coil split.
1 Master Tone Pot.
1 On/Off Toggle Switch For 15db Lead Boost powered by a 9V battery not included.
If the 9V battery is not installed then the Toggle Switch functions as a Kill Switch.
Chrome Strap-Lock Pins
I have it strung with 11-48 Slinky's and intonation set at D Standard 444 Hz.
The original hard-shell case.
Gibson 2015 Les Paul Classic Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
Newly redesigned mahogany SlimTaper neck provides increased playing comfort
'57 Classic and Super '57 pickups deliver vintage-tinged humbucker tone
Newly redesigned mahogany SlimTaper neck provides increased playing comfort
Comfort and playability were two of Gibson's primary concerns when they were designing this 2015 Les Paul Classic solidbody electric guitar.
This guitar's neck and fretboard are .050" wider on each side, making bends and vibrato much easier on its outer strings.
Speaking of this Les Paul Classic's silky-smooth fretboard, it's now sanded and buffed to the nth degree and finished with an all-new oil treatment, making it easy for you to display your fast fretwork.
Also, Gibson's new patent-pending Zero Fret Nut can be easily adjusted with a hex key if your action is too high - no filing necessary. You'll be amazed at how this guitar's SlimTaper neck profile compensates for its wider dimensions.
'57 Classic and Super '57 pickups deliver vintage-tinged humbucker tone
Two of Gibson's best-loved humbuckers - a '57 Classic in the neck position and a Super '57 in the bridge - give this 2015 Les Paul Classic solidbody electric guitar the power, punch, and clarity of Gibson's legendary PAF pickups.
On top of that, this Les Paul Classic's Turbo Boost switch gives you 15dB of extra gain to make your solos sing and sting.
If that isn't enough, this Les Paul Classic's modified wiring also offers coil splitting, giving you access to chimey, bell-like single-coil tones with a flick of its mini-toggle switch!
Gibson's four Cs plan ensures top-quality components
When buying diamonds, there are four characteristics that are used to grade or select the stones. These are known as the four Cs: carat, cut, clarity, and color. Gibson has implemented a similar system to grade their guitars' components: weight, top contour, grain structure/purity, and grain figure/depth. By putting this system into action, Gibson can ensure that all of their guitars are built using top-grade materials.
