Gibson The Les Paul 1976 - 1980

Gibson's "The Les Paul" was a highly-appointed, top-of-the-line model made in limited production from 1976 to about 1980. These guitars used mahogany cores sandwiched with maple, a laminate maple neck, ornate rosewood binding throughout and a fretboard that used both ebony and rosewood. These guitars also introduced Gibson's new "Fine-Tuning" tailpiece and gold hardware.
