This Les Paul Packs a Turbo Boost for Your Tone

With the Gibson Les Paul Classic solidbody electric guitar, you've got the classic feel and sound of a '60s Les Paul, plus a few extra tonal tricks. You've got two zebra coil pickups, a '57 Classic at the neck and a Super '57 at the bridge, for commanding humbucker tone. And the Les Paul Classic sports push/pull coil taps for each, so you've got a wide range of single-coil tone too. But the best part is switching on the +15dB "Turbo Boost" toggle switch, and sending your amplifier into the red zone with the Gibson Les Paul Classic.

Gibson Les Paul Classic Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Tonal tenacity from '57 humbuckers
  • Kick your tone over the top with the 15dB Turbo Boost
  • Balanced playability with a rounded '60s neck profile
Tonal tenacity from '57 humbuckers

The Gibson Les Paul Classic packs a pair of iconic-sounding pickups: a '57 Classic at the neck, and a Super '57 humbucker at the bridge. From smooth, sultry clean tones all the way to raging rock leads, the Les Paul Classic covers the entire range.

Kick your tone over the top with the 15dB Turbo Boost

To really make your solos shine, sometimes you just need to hit your amplifier with a bit more oomph. The Les Paul Classic makes it easy, with a built-in Turbo Boost switch that kicks on 15dB of extra gain. You can take your tone from a whisper to a scream in an instant with the Les Paul Classic.

Balanced playability with a rounded '60s neck profile

The Gibson Les Paul Classic sports a '60s rounded neck profile, comfortable for all playing styles. This rounded profile is a compromise between the thicker '50s-style necks and the thinner '60s necks Gibson produced. It gives you a solid foundation for chording, while being comfortable enough for players with smaller hands to play fast.

Gibson Les Paul Classic Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Les Paul guitar with aggressive tone and classic feel
  • Mahogany body with traditional weight relief serves up rich tone without being too heavy
  • Zebra coil '57 Classic and Super '57 humbuckers give you wide-ranging tone with ample output
  • Rounded '60s neck profile is a nice compromise between thick '50s necks and thin '60s necks
  • Turbo Boost switch boosts your output by 15dB for in-your-face tone
  • Vintage-style hard case included
The Gibson Les Paul Classic packs some serious tonal tenacity!
