Golden era Les Paul punch with fast 60s feel and endless sustain
If you have been chasing that classic Les Paul sound in your head, this is the lane you are in. Non weight relieved mahogany, a killer AA figured maple top, and 60s style hardware and electronics give this Honey Amber Standard all the bite, bloom, and authority you expect from a great Gibson.
This specific guitar is the real deal you see in the photos, right down to the flame and grain. It is built for players who want a lively, resonant Les Paul that feels broken in from the first chord and stays inspiring long after the honeymoon period.
Non weight relieved mahogany punch with AA maple snap
The heart of this Standard 60s is a solid, non weight relieved mahogany body topped with an AA figured maple cap. You feel that extra mass the second you hit a big chord, with a tight low end, muscular mids, and a top end that sings instead of shrieks.
The gloss nitrocellulose finish lets the wood breathe and age the right way instead of sitting under a thick, plastic feeling coat. In Honey Amber, the flame jumps under stage lights and studio lamps, so it looks as big as it sounds.
Fast 60s SlimTaper neck and comfortable 12 inch radius
The mahogany SlimTaper neck is built for players who like to move. It fills your hand enough to feel substantial, but stays sleek and fast for runs, bends, and wide vibrato without fatigue.
A bound Indian rosewood board with a 12 inch radius and 22 medium jumbo frets keeps chords clean and bends buttery all the way up the neck. Acrylic trapezoid inlays and single ply binding nail the early 60s look while the fretwork stays modern and precise with no sharp edges or dead spots.
60s Burstbuckers and hand wired Orange Drop warmth
The 60s Burstbucker pickups, both loaded with Alnico 5 magnets, hit that sweet spot between vintage clarity and modern output. Clean, they stay glassy and articulate with plenty of note separation. Push your amp and they thicken up into rich, vocal overdrive that still lets every string speak.
Hand wired controls with audio taper pots and Orange Drop capacitors give you usable volume and tone sweeps instead of on or off jumps. You can park the toggle in any position, ride the knobs, and carve out everything from crisp edge of breakup to thick, singing lead tones without touching your pedals.
Rock solid hardware that keeps you in tune and on stage
An ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and aluminum stop bar tailpiece keep the feel classic and the sustain huge. The GraphTech nut and Grover Rotomatic tuners work together for solid tuning stability, even if you lean hard on big bends and aggressive rhythm work.
Cream pickguard, top hat reflector knobs, and nickel hardware tie the whole look together in pure Les Paul fashion. A Gibson hardshell case and accessory kit are in the box, so this one is ready to hit the road or live in the studio from day one.
