Here for sale we have a Gibson Les Paul Standard T Electric Guitar in Desert Burst finish. Made in the USA in 2016, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Modern Weight Relieved Mahogany body with a captivating Carved AAA Flamed Maple, Mahogany neck and 22 fret Rosewood fingerboard. This instrument is fitted with Chrome hardware including Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, as well as a set of Grover Locking tuning machines. A pair of Gibson Burstbucker Pro humbuckers are featured, these are wired to a 3-Way Toggle Switch, Bridge volume (with Push/Pull Coil-Split), Bridge tone (with Push/Pull Bypass” which bypasses the tone and volume controls), Neck volume (with Push/Pull Coil-Split) and a Neck tone (with Push/Pull Out of Phase).
The Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the Asymmetrical SlimTaper profile filling the hand without being overly thick, this offers a balanced and smooth playing experience. This creates a feeling of dependability whilst remaining articulate enough for technical playing. The 10”-16” Compound Radius fingerboard strikes the perfect balance between comfortable chord playing and smooth lead lines, making for a truly authentic yet refined Les Paul playing experience, whilst the Medium Jumbo frets provide a rock-solid playing surface whilst also assisting with string bending and vibrato techniques.
Amplified, the pair of Gibson Burstbucker Pro humbuckers provide a fantastically thick and full tone right out of the gate. The neck is warm and round, with huge solo tones and smooth, buttery distortion on offer. The Burstbucker Pro humbucker in the bridge position offers full-bodied yet cutting rock rhythm tones that will catapult you to the front of any mix with ease. The Push/Pull coil-splitting featured on both of the volumes adds to the versatility of this guitar allowing the player to access single-coil tones when a thinner sound is required. The Push/Pull Out of Phase feature on the neck tone control allows the user to flip the polarity of the pickups providing a warm throaty ‘cocked wah’ type of sound great for 60’s styles of rock music, whilst the Push/Pull ‘Bypass’ feature on the bridge tone control disengages both of the volumes and tone controls allowing the player to have each pickup at full voracity perfect for when you don't want to worry about knocking the controls and want the full on tone of the guitar.
