Description
Gibson USA’s only guitar with hand wiring, no weight relief and the thickest neck make it the most traditional Les Paul in the 2015 lineup.
Classic humbucker tone with historically “unmatched” bobbin windings for vintage humbucker tone with enhanced highs. Unbalanced windings similar to the Burstbucker except with coil offset reversed. (Screw coil has more winds than slug coil). Reversed coil offset designed to provide balance between coils, and still offer vintage humbucker voice.
ABOUT GIBSON:
Orville Gibson founded the company in 1902 as “The Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co., Ltd.” in Kalamazoo, Michigan to make mandolin-family instruments. Gibson invented archtop guitars by constructing the same type of carved, arched tops used on violins. By the 1930s, the company was also making flattop acoustic guitars, as well as one of the first commercially available hollow-body electric guitars, used and popularized by Charlie Christian. www.gibson.com
