As classic as it gets

Gibson Les Paul Standard 60s Cherry Electric Guitar

There are only a few guitar designs that have decisively influenced generations of players and shaped the course of music history, and there is no question that Gibson's Les Paul is one of those few. Of course, this model has gone through numerous variations in the 70-odd years since it was first introduced, but most players ultimately still want instruments that are as close as possible to those from the late 1950s and early 1960s. That is exactly what they get with this guitar - which of course is manufactured to the highest standards of quality in the USA and is just waiting to continue the Les Paul's illustrious legacy. A fitting guitar case is included, which offers the best protection possible at home or on the way to the rehearsal room.

Perfect for Rock and beyond

Explaining the Gibson Les Paul to a guitarist is pretty much like bringing sand to the beach - after all, anyone who is even remotely familiar with the history of the electric guitar or takes an interest in the instruments played by prominent musicians will have heard of this classic model. Rock musicians like Slash and Peter Frampton as well as more modern bands like In Flames are often among the first names to crop up in conjunction with the Les Paul, so many are quick to overlook how flexible it can be and how well it can handle other styles. Thanks to its excellent combination of woods, ingenious and now-legendary design, and top-quality hardware, the Les Paul Standard is quite simply a fantastic guitar. End of story.

For guitarists who want to keep growing, year after year

In these times of constant technological change, it is easy to forget that there is an essential, down-to-earth craftsmanship that goes into to playing the guitar. So if you are looking for an instrument that will both challenge you and boost your development while letting you find your very own style, you have come to the right place. There is a very good reason why the Gibson Les Paul has become a classic that is loved by millions of musicians around the world. Quite apart from its tonal characteristics, this guitar also looks stunning. The Cherry finish shown here, for example, brings out the grain of the guitar's maple top beautifully with its striking colour. The case is solid and can also be locked. With the case handle it can be carried to its next destination.

About Gibson

The Gibson Guitar Corporation was founded in 1902 by Orville Gibson and has its headquarters in Nashville, USA. Gibson is world famous and is loved by many musicians for its cult-status instruments. Gibson was responsible for building the world’s first mass-produced electric guitar, the ES-150, in 1936. The “Les Paul”, one of the first solid-body electric guitars, followed in 1952 and remains hugely popular to this day, in great part thanks to the “humbucker” pickups installed from 1957 onwards. The range has expanded over the years to include such well-known guitar models as the SG, the Flying V, and the ES-335, as well as bass guitars and acoustic guitars including the Thunderbird bass and the Hummingbird dreadnought. Well-known artists such as Pete Townshend, Slash, Angus Young, Tony Iommi, B.B. King, Michael Patrick Kelly, and Nikki Sixx, swear by Gibson guitars.

Develop your own unique sound

If you want to improve your guitar playing and find a sound and a style of your very own, you will need a partner that gives you all the necessary tools as well as plenty of flexibility to use them - and the Gibson Les Paul Standard 60s Cherry gives you both. It is of course also perfect for those who "only" want to unleash rocking riffs and creamy lead tones on the audience, but it is well worth studying this high-quality instrument in greater depth and fully exploring the sounds and possibilities offered by the two Burstbuckers, which are equipped with a dedicated volume and tone control each and governed by a three-way toggle switch. This combination puts the full range of sounds - from Funk and Jazz all the way to Metal - at the player's fingertips, so guitar and player together will form an unbeatable partnership.

GIBSON, bitte nicht so !
Mr. Bending 10.07.2024
Die Gitarre ist optisch "anschauend" eine Augenweide.
Leider gibt es mal wieder Verarbeitungsfehler.
Das Binding wurde nicht richtig eingefasst. Man fühlt mit dem Finger den Übergang zum Korpus und dies unregelmässig.
Der Sattel ist zwar perfekt abgerichtet, jedoch sind die Ecken "messerscharf". Diese beiden Fehler findet man sehr oft bei Gibson Les Paul Modellen, auch bei denen, die im Custom Shop hergestellt werden. Ich besitze diese Custom (58er). Manche Gitarren zeigen auch noch Lackfehler, nicht polierte Bundstäbchen, was BENDINGS unmöglich macht usw. UNGLAUBLICH !
In den letzten Wochen hatte ich noch eine Les Paul Special TV Yellow gekauft. Der Halspickup wackelt und erzeugt Nebengeräusche, die Diskantsaiten klirren, wobei die Intonation und die sonstigen Einstellungen perfekt stimmen. Auch hier, der Sattel messerscharf.
Gibson verkauft nicht tolle Gitarren, sondern für viel Geld seinen Schriftzug. So muss man es leider mittlerweile sehen und auch benennen.
Der Kunde ist hier keinesfalls der König.
Der Hals dieser 60s Cherry ist äusserst bequem zu spielen. Man merkt gar nicht, dass auf der Gitarre auch noch Saiten sind. Man spürt sie unter den Fingern fast nicht.
Schnelles spielen/greifen macht hier richtig Spass.
Der Sound der Humbucker ist sehr gut. Sie können fast alle Musikstile gut abbilden. Hier kann man nicht meckern. Sie sind sehr ausgeglichen und super im Zerrbereich (Steg).
Das Gewicht mit fast 4,3 Kg ist zwar Les Paul- üblich, jedoch ginge es auch hier leichter, ohne dass Zusatzkosten sich gross bemerkbar machen würden. Mehr als 4Kg sollte eine Les Paul nicht wiegen, ohne mit Bohrungen einzugreifen.
Wären die von mir erörterten Fehler nicht vorhanden, dann könnte man von einer perfekten Gitarre sprechen.
Leider ist es nicht so.

Ich spiele nun 55 Jahre auf Gitarren, habe es gelernt und war auch als Tonmeister, Produzent und Verleger in der Welt unterwegs.
Sehr viele Gitarren sind durch meine Hände gegangen.
So sollte ich durchaus etwas über Gitarren und Musik kennen, um
entsprechende Urteile abzugeben.
