This unplayed 2013 Les Paul Future Tribute is primed for optimum playability and versatility with a pair of zebra-coil ’57 Classic humbucking pickups for a blend of vintage warmth and contemporary articulation, along with a superbly comfortable custom asymmetrical neck profile. Gibson’s acclaimed bridge and tailpiece team up with futuristic Steinberger gearless tuners to ensure smooth play-ability and precise tuning and intonation.

The Les Paul Future Tribute takes the classic platform of the original Les Paul Standards forward into the 21st century by starting with the timeless tone wood combination of a mahogany body with solid carved maple top. The mahogany back is strategically weight relieved using modern weight relief methods for reduced weight and improved resonance. 

A solid mahogany neck is glued into the body in Gibson’s time-tested tradition, and carved to an ergonomic and superbly comfortable new asymmetrical profile that fits the natural shape of the human hand, with depths of .800” at the 1st fret and .875” at the 12th, making this one of the most playable Les Paul's yet created. It is topped with a genuine rosewood fingerboard that carries 22 medium-jumbo frets and traditional trapezoid inlays. A PLEK-cut nut made from black Corian subtly complements the knurled chrome knobs and black pickup rings, while enhancing resonance and sustain. The headstock is silk screened with a gold Gibson logo and Les Paul Model.

The guitar ensures its sonic versatility and hot looks with a pair of zebra-coil ’57 Classic humbucking pickups, consisting of a standard wound humbucker in the neck position and a slightly over-wound ’57 Classic Plus for hotter lead tones in the bridge position. The ’57 Classics begin with genuine Alnico 2 magnets and 42-AWG enamel-coated wire, but are enhanced with evenly matched coils for a smooth, singing tone, and wax potting. The result is a thick, rich, warm, and articulate tone.

The timeless classic tune-o-matic bridge and Stopbar tailpiece anchors the guitar and then rams it into the future with a set of super-efficient Steinberger gearless tuners, a hardware set that partners up for solid sustain and precision tuning. Included is a black Gibson gig bag, owner’s manual and truss rod wrench.

Gibson called the finish sheen of this guitar "Vintage Gloss". It is Gibson's name for the finish and not ours. The finish itself has more of a semi-gloss sheen and in actuality is somewhere between a full gloss and a satin finish.
