If you're looking a great Gibson Les Paul that brings you all the features that made it a guitar legend, here's this Gibson Les Paul Traditional in Heritage Cherry Sunburst from 2016. This killer Les Paul isn't too heavy, sounds like a classic Les Paul and plays smoothly. The Heritage Cherry Sunburst finish is illustrious and brings out the maple top.
After a rather rough foray into undesired modernization in 2015, Gibson reverted back to the classic vibe for 2016. It was a great move, and players started clamoring for their guitars again. For the 2016 version of the Les Paul Traditional, Gibson took a much more literal interpretation of the word ‘traditional’ with a guitar that far more to the original design, but with just enough modern appointments to make it better.
The Les Paul Traditional 2016 T's foundation is the same traditional tonewood combination that helped make the Les Paul a legend when it was introduced six decades ago. A traditional pickup wind in the neck position provides plenty of warmth and clarity, and in the bridge position, slightly over-wound coils in the '57 Classic Plus offer wailing lead tones. The mahogany body features Gibson’s traditional weight relief, where nine holes are cut out of the body at strategic places in order to keep the mass of the guitar down, whilst affecting the tone and resonance as little as possible. For 2016 Gibson also went back to more classic hardware in the form of chrome finished tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece. The one-piece mahogany neck features a dark rosewood fretboard with a comfortable 12” radius and ‘Traditional’ profile that is very player friendly.
Everything on the guitar is original, it's in incredible shape, comes with the original hardshell case, and has been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop.
