Gibson Les Paul Standard 1979 Cherry Sunburst

About this listing

It sure took some time for the Kalamazoo company to finally reintroduce the Standard to the catalog—15 years, in fact! After disappearing in 1960, the Les Paul returned in 1968, but only with mini-humbuckers, P-90s, or full-size humbuckers under the Custom label. Here it is at last—the most iconic model—this 1979 Les Paul Standard. This example features the classic Norlin-era construction: a mahogany body, three-piece maple top and neck, and a rosewood fingerboard. The pickups are T-Tops, worthy successors to the original PAFs and Patent Number models. This guitar shows heavy aging, including remnants of a signature on the top and a broken screw in one of the pickup rings. Sold in a generic case.More pix and details upon request.Shipping worldwide available.

Overview

Gibson was heavily pushing the Les Paul Deluxe and Les Paul Custom during the Norlin Era years, but full-sized humbucker Standards started making their way out of the factory via special order in 1974. Some of these '74 - '75 guitars actually say "Deluxe" on the back of the headstock, making it difficult to know whether or not the factory did the actual routing.

The Les Paul Standard did not make a return to the actual catalog until 1976, and has remained in production ever since.
