The new Les Paul Standard 60s Faded returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played, and loved – shaping sound across generations and genres of music. It pays tribute to Gibson’s Golden Era of innovation and brings authenticity back to life. The Les Paul Standard 60s Faded features a satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish that gives it the look and feel of a long-treasured musical companion. It has a solid mahogany body with an AA figured maple top and a SlimTaper™ 60s-style mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard and trapezoid inlays. It’s equipped with an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, Grover® Rotomatic “Kidney” tuners, and gold Top Hat knobs with Silver Reflectors and Dial Pointers. The covered 60s Burstbucker™ pickups are hand-wired to audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop® capacitors. A hardshell case is included.
