Gibson Les Paul Signature T (Vintage Sunburst)

From Our Research Team:

Classic '60s Tone, Modern Feel and Comfort

Plug the Gibson Les Paul Signature T solidbody electric guitar into your favorite tube amplifier and hold on, because it's packing classic tone and modern comfort. The Les Paul Signature T sports Gibson's traditional weight-relieved body, so you'll be able to gig all night without the shoulder pain. And a pair of '57 Classic humbucking pickups give you rich, even tone that you can shape to taste for any music style. Factor in the fast and smooth '60s SlimTaper neck profile, and you've got a real performer in your hands with the Gibson Les Paul Signature T solidbody electric guitar.



Gibson Les Paul Signature T Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Toneful mahogany body with pain-saving weight relief
  • '60s SlimTaper neck profile plays fast and smooth
  • Nail countless vintage electric guitar tones with '57 Classic humbuckers

Toneful mahogany body with pain-saving weight relief
The classic Les Paul recipe of a mahogany body topped with maple (AA figured maple in fact!) is here in the Les Paul Signature T. What you won't find is the shoulder-straining weight of '60s originals. That's because Gibson applied their traditional weight relief to this LP, which lightens the load so you can easily gig all night. It's still got a little heft to it, and the sustain is everything you'd expect from a Les Paul, so only your back will know the difference.

'60s SlimTaper neck profile plays fast and smooth
The Gibson Les Paul Signature T sports a comfortable, fast-action neck with a '60s SlimTaper profile. Early Gibson guitars had huge, often ungainly necks. By 1960, Gibson had gradually carved down this profile into what became their SlimTaper neck. As your fingers move down this neck, the precisely controlled width-to-thickness ratio of the Les Paul Signature T's SlimTaper neck provides you with a consistent, fast, and comfortable feel. It's no wonder many life-long guitar players consider the SlimTaper Gibson's finest neck.

Nail countless vintage electric guitar tones with '57 Classic humbuckers
Open-coil '57 Classic humbuckers give the Les Paul Signature T the power, punch, and clarity of Gibson's legendary PAF pickups. And because the Les Paul Signature T also sports push/pull coil splitting, you'll have access to an amazing array of single-coil tones too.

Gibson Les Paul Signature T Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Classic Les Paul tone and feel, with modern sonic flexibility and comfort
  • Mahogany body with AA figured maple top give you wide-ranging tone with bite
  • Traditional weight relief removes excess weight without sacrificing tone or sustain
  • Acclaimed SlimTaper neck feels fast and smooth no matter what position you're playing in
  • Dual '57 Classic humbuckers have a wide-ranging tone with a rich midrange
  • Push/pull coil splitting gives you access to single-coil tones too
  • Hard case included

Rock out with the sonically-flexible Gibson Les Paul Signature T!

Everything was exactly as promised. I was impressed with the phone call I received from your guy when I had just placed the order. He was very thorough and professional in every way. I love my new digital piano. Your wide selection and excellent service as well as your "3 Payment Plan" and the 2 year warranty sealed the deal for me on this purchase. No one else could come close.

You get a great bang for your buck with this guitar. I just recently bought it to go with my fulltone ocd and my fender blues jr. When i went to play it, i was absoloutely blown away by the sounds! Th... read more [+]e mahagony back and the 57 classic pickups do the thing for sure. They sound just like the old ACDC or Van Halen records and are very versetile due to the push/pull pots. You get a whole different arena of sounds due to those knobs. As far as looks go, you can't go wrong. The flame top on mine is absoloutely beautiful and it looks just like a classic Gibson Les Paul. The only thing that almost turned me away was that the fretboard wasn't rosewood. Instead, it was grenadillo (Sweetwater says rosewood but its not). I was a bit concerned but after playing it, there is really no difference and quite possibly is better than rosewood. Overall, a great guitar, but i would suggest playing before buying close [-]

Beautiful playing machine

Playing it right out of the box. Easily the best looking guitar I own. The detail and finish could not be better. The QC at Gibson is perfect. This guitar is flawless and Sweetwater techs set it up ... read more [+]perfectly. The only change I made was the bridge pickup. It wasn't hot enough for my taste. Put in a Duncan JB and I couldn't be happier. A perfect compliment to my 1980 LP custom. The 57 pickup in the neck is crystal clear. The independent coil tapping has added a lot of new tones to my playing. Great guitar for the money. Fits like it was made for me. Way to go Gibson and Sweetwater. close [-]
