Here for sale we have a Gibson Les Paul Standard Premium Plus Electric Guitar in Desert Burst finish. The Premium Plus range was designed to offer a higher-grade top on a Les Paul, with considerably upgraded electronics & playability features such as a compound radius to provide the player with the most premium experience possible, without having to spend the money to get to a Custom Shop level instrument.
Made in the USA in 2013, this guitar consists of a Mahogany body with a Carved Flame Maple top, Mahogany neck and 22-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include Trapezoid inlays, Chrome Plated hardware, Grover locking tuners, a Nashville ToM bridge, a Stopbar tailpiece, and a set of Gibson Burstbucker Pro Humbuckers. These pickups are wired to two volume controls (push/pull coil tap), two tone controls (push/pull phase/pure bypass), and a three-way pickup selector.
The Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the Asymmetrical '60s SlimTaper profile filling the hand without being overly thick, and offering a balanced and smooth playing experience across the register. Slightly slimmer on the treble side, the neck feels well equipped for a wide range of playing styles & techniques. This creates a feeling of dependability whilst remaining articulate enough for technical playing. The 10"-16" compound radius ensures that the playing experience is tailored to the needs of the player in all registers.
The BurstBucker Pro 1 & 2 pickups have a broad tone, encapsulating the classic vintage humbucker tones revered by many. The unbalanced coils provide a rich low end, a tight and punchy midrange, along with crisp and cutting trebles, granting plenty of clarity and articulation. The Burstbucker 1 in the neck position provides a lower output with full bodied tone, whilst the Burstbucker 2 in the bridge responds incredibly to overdriven tones, offering saturated lead lines and excellent note clarity. The controls offer comprehensive tone shaping options, with the push/pull features really allowing you to reshape and re-voice the guitar, allowing it to blend into any style or genre with ease.
Please be aware that for international buyers import fees are not included in our postage and packaging cost, this only covers the cost of the guitar being sent to you. Import fees will be charged by Customs upon the guitar's arrival in the recipient country. Due to Brexit, this also applies to EU buyers. We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
