Gibson / Les Paul Tribute 1952 / 2013 / Gold / Guitar
|
The passing of the incomparable Les Paul in August 2009 broke the hearts of guitar enthusiasts around the world. What can never be broken, though, is the legacy of innovation and creativity that he built during 94 years of constant musicianship. Though the original guitar he designed in 1952 has informed every Gibson guitar since, our engineers were inspired anew to handcraft a guitar just the way Les demanded it nearly 60 years ago. Never before has a Les Paul guitar been so completely designed to Les’ original specifications. Until now. Anchored by a golden mahogany body, maple top and rosewood fingerboard, the Les Paul Tribute 1952 is equipped with an all-new bridge that’s an exact replica of Les’ original 1952 patent. Our luthiers have also added historical interest with details like stamping “prototype” into the back of the peg head and staying true to Les’ preference for P-90 pickups. The Les Paul Tribute 1952 honors the most important figure in all of guitar history and the guitar he designed and loved.
Logo
The Gibson logo — one of the most globally recognized logos of all time — is inlaid in mother of pearl onto the headstock of the Les Paul Tribute 1952. The “Les Paul Model” signature is silkscreened in gold just below the logo. To offer historical interest, the word “prototype” is stamped into the back of the peg head
