Gibson Les Paul Classic Plus '60s Electric Guitar with Hardshell Case
The Les Paul Classic Plus '60s features a mahogany body that employs Gibson’s weight relief construction technique. The body is mapped out with several well placed routed holes to reduce the potential excessive weight; as well as enhancing acoustic qualities and improving resonance. The weight is significantly reduced which maximizes player comfort. The carved body is then capped with a stunning AA figured Western maple top, capturing the iconic look of the Les Paul we’ve loved for decades. All the glory of yesteryear is preserved, while retaining a look and feel that’s contemporary as ever. The Les Paul Classic Plus '60s is outfitted with two Gibson open-coil ceramic humbucking pickups deliver that legendary powerful Les Paul sound with a little extra output.
A quarter-sawn mahogany neck is carved to a comfortably slim tapered '60s style profile that measures .800" deep at the 1st fret and .875" at the 12th. For the fingerboard, Gibson has employed a new environmentally sound technique in response to the growing scarcity of tonewoods like rosewood and ebony. This updated Les Paul sports a maple fingerboard that has gone through a process known as “torrifying”; which involves baking the maple in a special oven which increases water resistance and hardens the wood to give an ebony-like feel. Aesthetically; this process transforms the maple to give a more rosewood like appearance. The neck is capped with 22 medium jumbo frets, those familiar trapezoidal inlays, and a radius of 12" for easy playability and smooth effortless string-bending.
The Gibson Les Paul Classic Plus '60s is rounded out by a set of traditional vintage style tuners along with a chromed Tune-O-Matic bridge and stop tailpiece combo. A protective Gibson hardshell case is included.
