Description
The Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s P-90 Solidbody Electric Guitar is a legend reborn. This iconic ax blends vintage-inspired looks with innovative, professional-level features, transporting players back to the golden age of rock 'n' roll. At its core is a mahogany body with maple top and a rounded '50s-style mahogany neck for resonant, full-bodied tone. Coveted P-90 single-coil pickups deliver clarity and punch, powered by hand-wired electronics and orange drop capacitors. From its gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish to its vintage hardware, the Les Paul Standard '50s P-90 is a tribute to Gibson's storied history of excellence.
P-90 Pickups Provide Versatile Tone
The Les Paul Standard '50s P-90 is equipped with P-90 single-coil pickups in the neck and bridge positions. Renowned for their tonal versatility and articulate midrange, these Alnico V magnet pickups produce everything from glassy cleans to raunchy overdrive. The 3-way pickup selector allows players to access the neck pickup solo, bridge pickup solo or both pickups together.
Hand-Wired Electronics Yield Vintage Sound
Gibson's hand-wired electronics feature quality components like audio taper potentiometers and orange drop capacitors, which help shape the Les Paul Standard '50s P-90's tone. Two volume and two tone controls provide flexibility in dialing in your perfect sound.
'50s Profile Neck Offers Fast, Comfortable Playing
This Les Paul's mahogany neck has a rounded '50s profile for a fast, comfortable playing feel. Its rosewood fingerboard features 22 medium-jumbo frets and acrylic trapezoid inlays. A 12" fingerboard radius and 1.695" nut width strike a balance between vintage specifications and modern playability.
Vintage-Style Bridge and Tuning Machines
An ABR-1 Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece anchor the strings and provide exceptional intonation and sustain. Vintage deluxe tuning machines with keystone buttons complete the look and performance.
