Gibson Les Paul Special in cherry, USED
The Gibson Les Paul Special in cherry is a classic and timeless electric guitar that captures the essence of stripped-down rock and roll. Originally introduced in the 1950s as a more affordable model, it has since become a cult favourite among players who value its no-frills design and exceptional tonal character. The solid mahogany body, finished in a rich cherry colour, exudes vintage appeal while providing warm, resonant tones with excellent sustain.
Equipped with dual P-90 pickups, this guitar delivers a distinctive, raw voice. The bridge pickup offers biting mids and a crisp, articulate high end, while the neck pickup provides a smooth, creamy tone perfect for blues, jazz, and classic rock. The combination of these single-coils produces a versatile sound palette, from clean and chime-like to gritty and aggressive, making it suitable for various styles and genres.
The set mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard ensures a comfortable playing experience, with a rounded profile that feels substantial without being overly bulky. Simple yet reliable hardware includes a wraparound bridge for enhanced sustain and straightforward intonation, along with vintage-style tuners that complement the guitar’s aesthetic.
The Gibson Les Paul Special in cherry embodies the spirit of simplicity, focusing on delivering pure, unadulterated tone. Its lightweight design and vintage styling appeal to players seeking an authentic and expressive instrument with a direct connection to rock’s golden era.
