Feels Like a Vintage Les Paul Without the Vintage Price!
The Gibson Les Paul Studio '60s Tribute pays homage to the 1960's Les Paul. Prior to the birth of the humbucking pickup in the mid '50s, the Les Paul came equipped with P-90s (as does the Les Paul Studio '60s Tribute). The P-90 is known for a well-balanced sound, a strong midrange, and the ability to bounce between clean and mean with varied picking intensity. You'll find the '60s Slim Taper neck fast and player friendly. The Les Paul Studio '60s Tribute is available in a quintet of unique satin finishes.

The P-90 pickup produces a clean, bell-like tone that gets crunchy when you really lean into it. You'll love the punchy midrange and solid low end that sets P-90s apart from typical single-coil pickups. Many of The Beatles biggest hits were recorded using P-90 equipped guitars. But the coolest thing about the P-90 pickup is that once you roll off the highs, you can still get the smoky tones we normally associate with humbuckers.
Minimalist DesignKeeping with the feel of the Les Paul Studio, Gibson opted to omit frivolities such as a bound neck and body. The Les Paul Studio '60s Tribute really is more than the sum of its parts: old-school pickups, premium electrical components, minimalist finishing touches, and worn-in feel all merge to make the Les Paul Studio '60s Tribute a great guitar any Les Paul enthusiast would love. Gibson is only making a limited number of each finish, so call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer today to secure your very own Les Paul Studio '60s Tribute.
