Full Description
View Full DescriptionGibson '57 Classic and '57 Classic Plus Pickups
Loaded with '57 Classic and '57 Classic Plus humbucking pickups, the Les Paul Premium produces a warm, smooth sound while faithfully recreating the iconic ''PAF'' tone. Having become synonymous with the highly sought after sound of vintage Gibson guitars, the '57 Classic humbuckers offer a crunchy high gain tone at the bridge and a balanced response with classic crunch at the neck. Constructed from alnico II magnets, traditional neck winding, an overwound bridge and featuring two conductor wiring, these humbucking pickups are made to the exact same specifications as the original ''PAF'' pickups.
Tune-O-Matic Bridge
Tune-O-Matic bridges are an extremely popular fixed bridge type due to their stability, reliability, comfortable playing position and impressive sustain. Additionally adjusting the string action and intonation is extremely simple with a tune-o-matic bridge. Simply adjust the height of the bridge with the mounting rods to alter the action and screw in or out the bridge saddles to achieve perfect intonation.
