Here for sale we have a Gibson Les Paul Classic '100' in Vintage Sunburst finish. Made in the USA in 2015, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Mahogany body with traditional weight relief and 'A' Figured Maple top, SlimTaper Mahogany neck and 22 fret bound Rosewood fingerboard. This guitar is equipped with a Brass nut, G-Force robotic tuning machines and Chrome Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece. The pickups are a pair of '57 Classic Zebra Coil pickups that are wired to modified controls, with a 3-way toggle switch and independent volume & tone controls.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the SlimTaper profile feeling slender in the hand without being too thin. This creates a feeling of dependability whilst remaining articulate enough for technical playing. The traditional 12" fingerboard radius strikes the perfect balance between comfortable chord playing and smooth lead lines, making for a truly authentic yet refined Les Paul playing experience. The addition of the G-Force robotic tuning machines ensures that tuning is fast and effortless, with alternative tunings ready to play at the touch of a button.
The pair of '57 Classic humbuckers in this guitar offer a warm and rich tones, exactly as you would expect from a Les Paul. The neck position is thick and creamy, saturating beautifully into full-bodied distortion as you crank the gain. The bridge position is as bright and biting as you could ever need, helping you to cut through any mix with your rock rhythm tones. With the controls having been modified back to a more standard Gibson set up, it's easily possible to get all of your favourite Les Paul tones. Certainly the pots feel nicely responsive, meaning that small changes can have a big impact on your sound. This guitar truly is a fantastic celebration of its inventor's 100th birthday.
