Gary Moore Tribute Les Paul

Get ready to rock out with the Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute. In honor of the blues-rock phenom, Gibson has issued this amazing looking, playing, and sounding Les Paul. The Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute gives you the classic LP tonewood combo: a mahogany body topped with an AA maple top. But this axe sports Gibson's traditional weight relief, so you can rock all night in comfort. And playability is top-notch: wrap your hand around the chunky '50s profile neck, and you'll feel instantly at home. A pair of BurstBucker Pro pickups deliver the firepower and tone that Gary was known for. Pay homage to one of guitar's greatest players with the Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute.

Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:

  • Tribute to a blues-rock master

  • BurstBucker Pro pickups deliver vintage PAF tone
  • That chunky '50s-style neck
Tribute to a blues-rock master

Gibson's Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute gives you the robust sustain you need for hot liquid solos and massive rhythm tones. What's Gibson's secret? A major part of the Les Paul's tonewood recipe is the fusion of a maple top on a mahogany body. This combination is largely responsible for the legendary Les Paul sound, as well as the LP's reputation for being rather heavy. The Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute has many features that are reminiscent of the "Peter Green Les Paul" that Gary owned. From the highly flamed top to the Lemon Burst finish to the reverse-mounted neck pickup to its mismatched amber and gold knobs, the Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute is as unique an instrument as its namesake.

BurstBucker Pro pickups deliver vintage PAF tone

Gibson paid just as much attention to the Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute's electronics as they did to its aesthetics. Beginning with Orange Drop capacitors, every part of its internal signal path is designed to give you absolutely dead-on '59 Les Paul tone. Of course, it's next to impossible to find genuine '50s PAFs (even for Gibson). Instead, the Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute sports a pair of Gibson's BurstBucker Pro humbuckers with historically unmatched bobbin windings. You'll love the classic tones you get from the Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute.

That chunky '50s-style neck

The first Les Pauls had huge necks, but by 1960 the neck underwent several modifications until it became what's known as the SlimTaper design, which clearly is for wimps, right? If you're going to play a Les Paul, you want something you can actually grab onto. The rounded neck carve on the Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute gives you that classic baseball-bat feel. But it still has that warm, classic Les Paul feel, allowing easy access to the upper frets so you can really dig into your solos!

Gibson Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute Solidbody Electric Features:

  • A fitting tribute to a blues-rock master

  • Weight-relieved mahogany body with AA maple top
  • Rounded '50s neck profile
  • TonePros vintage-style bridge and Kluson tuners
  • A pair of BurstBucker Pro humbuckers deliver big, beefy, vintage tones
  • Neck pickup is reversed in tribute to Peter Green's LP that Gary owned
Add a Les Paul to your collection that's worthy of a blues-rock master with the Gary Moore Les Paul Standard Tribute.
