Gibson Les Paul BFG Electric Guitar

Gibson Les Paul BFG Electric Guitar Trans Cherry


Stripped down and ready for action!

A decidedly nontraditional Les Paul for rockers who want an LP with attitude and don't care about good looks. It has the sound and playability you'd expect from an LP, while its raw look stands Les Paul styling on its head: unsanded top, no binding, no pickup rings, no truss rod cover, no toggle switch rings, no fretboard position indicators (dots on the side only), with wooden knobs that have no numbers. This rough and tough guitar has sonics to match: steamy hot tones from the novel pickup combination of a single coil P-90 in the neck and a BurstBucker 3 in the bridge - like having an LP Special and a Standard in one guitar. Mini toggle pickup selection switch located near two volume and one master tone controls. Kill switch located where rhythm/lead switch used to be. "Distressed" stop bar, Tune-o-matic bridge, and Grovers and "shopworn" case complete the raw look of this very different looking Les Paul.
