Key Features
Product Ref: 67993
Constructed from a semi-hollow Maple/Poplar/Maple body the Memphis Les Paul Standard produces a bright, tight and precise tone with a balanced low and crisp high response. Finished with a unique carved top complimented by the faded lightburst lacquer the ES Les Paul Standard not only sounds great but looks extremely impressive.
Featuring a rounded "C" profile Maple neck with re-designed dimensions the Gibson ES Les Paul offers an effortless playability whilst the set-in construction ensures maximum vibration transferal for long sustain and increased resonance. With an added thickness to the headstock stem the ES Les Paul Standard delivers a stronger and more stable construction ideal for hard wearing playing. The headstock adjustable, historic truss rod provides superior adjustability due to the Teflon coating, larger diameter and robust Brass anchor.
The Gibson 2016 ES Les Paul employs a carefully fitted bone nut to provide an improved tone and sustain over traditional plastic and tusq nuts as it improves the vibration transfer between the string and tuning machines without dampening the tone. Featuring a Rosewood fingerboard finished with Pearloid trapezoid inlays the 2016 ES Les Paul Standard provides a smooth and quick playability whilst the rolled neck binding is rounded off to allow a comfortable fit to the contours of the hand.
Loaded with two MHS humbucking pickups, the Gibson ES Les Paul Standard delivers a vintage style tone with airy and biting response. Featuring unbalanced coils and Alnico II magnets with under wound design the MHS pickups are perfect for a variety of playing styles and offer a detailed and articulate response.
Every Gibson Memphis guitar receives an ultra-precise Plek Pro setup, which optimises the fingerboard and nut for perfect action and intonation. Gibson's world-class luthiers took painstaking care with every detail of the ES Les Paul, including fine touches like CTS pots, ceramic capacitors, nickel hardware, and a scrumptious nitrocellulose lacquer finish. These finishing touches add to the amazing tone and vibe of this incredible guitar, living up to the ES Series' legacy.
