Description

#05151

The Les Paul Standard last models of the original Burst era were made in 1960. In addition to slight profile modifications on the neck and a modified Sunburst finish compared to last year's model, this represented 1960 Les Paul the end of the most discussed era in the history of the electric guitar. As part of the True Historic series following on from the LP Reissue models, the R&D team of the LP Reissue is Gibson Custom Shop Nashville searching for the secrets of the last legendary bursts.

1960 Les Paul Profile & Rolled Fingerboard

For an authentic feeling in all positions, the 1960 True Historic Les Paul was equipped with the original neck profile. The slightly narrower shaping compared to the 59 LP was measured multidimensionally on the basis of numerous well-preserved 1960 Les Pauls and accurately implemented by means of modern CNC preparation and subsequent laborious manual work.

For the proven feeling of well-rehearsed necks, the 1960 True Historic Les Paul Standard has the so-called Rolled Fingerboard Binding. This not only provides the classic feeling, but also improves the playability at the edges of the fingerboard.

Hide Glue & Bucker Custom

The next step is to revive Gibson Custom Shop the use of bone glue for the neck pocket and ceiling construction. This classic glue of the instrument and furniture industry not only cures glashart to positively influence sound and sustain, but also allows easier Neck resets by heating the glue to dissolve residue-free.

Ultimately, two hand-wound Custom Bucker pickups faithfully reproduce the sound character of the 1960s True Historic Les Paul . These replications of the coveted Applied For patent pickups are based on the well-known recipe with Alnico III magnets and copper wire in AWG42 strength.
