Gibson Les Paul Classic Plus '50s Neck Profile
Gibson Les Paul Classic Plus '50s Neck Profile Electric Guitar Trans Ebony Burst
The Les Paul Classic Plus '50s Neck Profile is available for a limited time in a series of four beautiful transparent nitro lacquer finishes over AA figured maple tops. With high-output ceramic pickups, neck and body binding, this is is a real bargain in a full-featured, loaded Les Paul and now features the enhanced articulation of a Baked Maple fingerboard.
Baked Maple:
Aging maple through a “baking” process called torrefaction. The wood is kept at 200-300ยบ F for a period of time until the wood knows it’s no longer a tree; Moisture is restored under pressure. This makes the wood very hard, sonically “live” and extremely stable. The snappy sound of ebony, with the look of medium-brown pau ferro. Many boutique manufacturers are now using this because it improves the wood with no chemical treatment, it’s environmentally friendly and is great for making better sounding and playing guitars!
