Les Paul Standard
Traditional Plus
Time-honored appointments and a
lavishly figured top. The Plus designation refers to
the striking maple top. One not-so-traditional improve-
ment: the neck is dressed using the Plek machine, a robot that analyzes the
neck, files the frets, and slots the nut to one-hundredth of a millimeter accuracy
for optimal action and intonation. ’ 57 Classic humbuckers provide the throaty
tone revered by rockers for decades. Choose Chicago blue (shown), iced tea, heri-
tage cherry sunburst, honey burst, light burst, desert burst or wine red finish.
Includes Gibson hardshell case.
