Pre-Owned Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s - Heritage Cherry Sunburst

**SECOND HAND - EXCELLENT NEAR NEW CONDITION. FRESHLY SETUP IN-HOUSE WITH D'ADDARIO NYXL1046 STRINGS. INCLUDES ORIGINAL HARD CASE**

The Les Paul™ Standard 50s is a carefully crafted homage to the timeless instrument that changed the course of popular music. Reflecting the specs of Gibson’s most revered era, this guitar pairs a non-weight-relieved mahogany body with a carved maple top, echoing the construction of those celebrated models of the 1950s.

At the core of its vintage appeal is a 50s Vintage neck profile that fills your hand comfortably, perfect for both chunky power chords and expressive single-note lines. The bound Indian rosewood fretboard features 22 medium jumbo frets and classic trapezoid inlays, capturing the aesthetic that set the stage for generations of electric guitar design. Together, the solid body and robust neck yield a resonant platform for Burstbucker™ 1 and Burstbucker 2 pickups—both loaded with Alnico 2 magnets, calibrated to recreate the warm midrange, lively highs, and transparent lows of early PAF-style humbuckers.

Wired with audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop® capacitors, this Les Paul responds with exceptional precision to volume and tone adjustments, letting you explore a broad spectrum of sonic possibilities. From mellow jazz voicings to unfettered rock crunch, these pickups deliver the same nuanced detail and harmonic richness that made the original Les Pauls legendary. Hardware appointments include an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, and gold Top Hat knobs, ensuring modern performance reliability without sacrificing old-school vibe.

The Les Paul Standard 50s stands as a testament to Gibson’s Golden Era—an era defined by innovation, craftsmanship, and pure musicality. Complete with a Gibson hardshell case, it’s a guitar that looks, feels, and sounds like a direct line to rock ’n’ roll history. Whether you’re a purist, a collector, or simply someone who appreciates timeless design, this instrument remains a beacon of what made the Les Paul an enduring classic.
