Gibson - Les Paul Standard 60s Double Trouble Vintage Cherry Sunburst LTD + Etui

If the Gibson Les Paul Standard 60s is already a benchmark model for vintage enthusiasts, this Double Trouble version pushes the envelope even further in terms of elegance and sonic character. The Burstbucker 1 and 2 pickups, meticulously wound and tuned, retain all the warmth and characteristic grain of the Alnico 2 magnets. Add to that hand-wired Orange Drop capacitors, and you've got a dynamic, expressive response capable of delivering mellow blues as well as big, fat riffs.

Another distinctive feature is the hand-applied 'Vintage' nitrocellulose varnish, which gives it a slightly faded patina, reminiscent of a guitar that has survived the decades by accumulating stage memories. Unlike standard high-gloss finishes, this one has a subtle ageing, adding a touch of authenticity to every instrument. No two guitars are exactly alike, with each gradient of sunburst being hand-crafted for a unique result.

All the ingredients that made the Les Paul Standard 60s such a success are here: a dense mahogany body, a flamed maple top and a neck with the rounded profile typical of the 60s. In other words, exemplary sustain and an undeniably solid feel. The Tune-O-Matic ABR-1 bridge and aluminium Stop-Bar tailpiece ensure optimum vibration transmission, while the Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons guarantee stable tuning in all circumstances.
