Make’n Music is happy to have this 2011 Gibson Traditional model Les Paul Standard Traditonal Plus for sale at a great price! It is just in on consignment from one of our regulars and in great shape. There are no significant issues, damage or repairs. It was barely even played. Maybe some tiny marks here and there, but unless you are really hunting down dings with a microscope, there is nothing of note. Like all our used / vintage gear it has been tested for functionality and priced to move. Sold as-is. What you see is what you get.
This is a 2011 model year guitar with Plus Top and Chrome Hardware- Model Number LPTD6K+HSCH3. The details below are paraphraseed from the Gibson USA website, and accurate to the best of my knowledge (although I am not currently a Gibson dealer and you should check with Gibson or ask any questions for verificdation about anything you may have quesitons about) – Gibson USA has revamped the popular Les Paul Traditional, giving some fresh twists to its timeless blend of stellar tones, great looks, and unrivaled playability. The New Les Paul Traditional wraps several crucial features into a classic Les Paul that always just seemed right, echoing the specs of guitars that rocked the world through the 1980s and ’90s. The New Les Paul Traditional’s tonewood combination retains the great sound of the original Les Paul Standard, with an unchambered back for a thick, meaty tone and superb sustain. Its 60’s neck shape is slim and easy to play- One of the most popular profiles ever used on a Les Paul. Two PAF-style humbucking pickups give no end of power and finesse. The new Les Paul Traditional also features classic good looks with it’s Flame figured Maple top (it’s very 3D with lots of movement- My lighting just doesn’t do it justice) beneath a Cherry Sunburst finish, all in high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer.
The New Les Paul Traditional is built on a foundation of the same traditional tonewood combination that helped to make the Les Paul Standard legendary when it first arrived six decades ago. A carved solid high grade figured Maple top lends bite and articulation to the sound while looking great in the process, and a solid, Mahogany back without weight relief contributes superb warmth and depth. A quarter-sawn, Grade-A Mahogany neck is glued in and carved in a comfortable, slim 60’s profile and topped with a bound Grade-A, Dark Rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets and traditional trapezoid inlays. Traditional touches include cream body and fingerboard binding and pickup rings (pickguard and toggle switch ring are in the case and do not appear to have ever been installed), along with gold Knobs. Classic Gibson construction with traditional specs like a 24 ¾” scale length ensures optimum playability.
Pure vintage-voiced tone with a contemporary edge is assured by a pair of Gibson Humbucking pickups with traditional chromed covers. Both are made in the image of the hallowed PAF humbucker of the late 1950s. Both pickups are wax potted, too, to avoid microphonic squeal at high volume levels and controlled by a Volume and Tone control for each. The innovative pairing of a Tune-o-Matic bridge and Stopbar tailpiece ensures solid sustain and precise intonation, while a set of high-quality vintage-style tuners have accurately colored tulip knobs and ensure smooth, accurate tuning.
Includes a Gibson hardshell case covered in black snakeskin-textured vinyl.
