Mooloolaba Music is thrilled to announce the arrival of the Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s in the exquisite Faded Vintage Honey Burst finish. This iconic instrument adds a new chapter to a storied legacy, delighting guitar enthusiasts with its timeless appeal and striking aesthetics.

The Les Paul Standard '50s Faded embodies a classic design that has stood the test of time, earning its place among the most celebrated electric guitars across various musical styles. This model pays homage to Gibson's Golden Era of groundbreaking innovation, revitalizing its authentic character. Sporting a satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish, it captures the essence of a cherished guitar that has been lovingly played over the years. Constructed with a solid mahogany body, devoid of weight relief like traditional Les Pauls, it features an AA figured carved maple cap that adds a vivid brightness and bite to the inherently warm mahogany tone. In addition to its sonic qualities, the figured maple elevates the guitar’s visual presence, creating a truly stunning instrument. The mahogany neck showcases a Vintage-style profile from the 1950s, providing a satisfying and full grip without feeling overly cumbersome. Finished in satin, the neck ensures a smooth and quick playing experience. Complemented by a rosewood fretboard, this model includes 22 medium jumbo frets that easily accommodate the player’s needs, while acrylic trapezoid inlays enhance its classic look. With a 12" radius for the fretboard, both beginners and seasoned players can enjoy effortless chording and fluid string bending across its range.

Equipped with an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and an aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, as well as a Graph Tech nut, the Les Paul Standard '50s Faded excels in sustain and tuning stability thanks to its Vintage Deluxe tuners adorned with Keystone buttons. The guitar’s dual pickups feature independent volume and tone controls, complete with traditional gold Top Hat knobs that include dial pointers for precise adjustments. The neck and bridge are outfitted with Gibson Burstbucker 1 and Burstbucker 2 pickups, respectively, both housed in nickel covers and expertly hand-wired to audio taper potentiometers alongside Orange Drop capacitors. To provide exemplary protection, a hardshell case is included, ensuring your Les Paul Standard '50s Faded remains safe and secure both at home and during transport to your next gig.
