Returning to the roots of a classic, this left-handed Les Paul Standard '50s oozes authenticity and serves as a reminder of Gibson's history of innovation. The traditional figured maple on mahogany construction and '50s neck profile bear a gorgeous nitro-lacquer finish for that legendary look. Looking back to the transition that took place in 1957, the guitar boasts calibrated Alnico II probucker pickups and hand-wired controls. A truly timeless electric that's as satisfying to play today as it was 6 decades ago, it's ready for your musical explorations.
