Unveil a piece of electric guitar heritage with the Gibson Les Paul Standard ’50s Faded in Vintage Tobacco Burst, a modern reimagining of one of the most iconic instruments in music history. This guitar wears its satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish like a badge of honor, offering a warm, aged aesthetic that looks as if it’s been on stage for decades. Its non-weight-relieved mahogany body and AA figured maple top deliver lush resonance and sustain, while the Vintage Tobacco Burst coloration deepens in the contours of the carved top, recalling classic sun-soaked finishes that have shaped rock, blues, and jazz for generations. This timeless feel meets 50s era design in every curve and contour, making it as inspiring to hold as it is to play.

Beneath its stunning exterior lies time-tested craftsmanship: a mahogany neck with a ’50s Vintage profile that feels substantial in your hand without ever being cumbersome. The rosewood fretboard offers 22 medium jumbo frets and classic acrylic trapezoid inlays set against a comfortable 12" radius — ideal for rich barre chords down low and expressive bends higher up the neck. From the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge to the aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece and Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, every hardware detail enhances tuning stability and the sustain Les Pauls are known for.

Sonically, the Les Paul Standard ’50s Faded bristles with character. A pair of Gibson’s Burstbucker pickups — Burstbucker 1 at the neck and Burstbucker 2 at the bridge — are hand-wired with Orange Drop capacitors and nickel covers, offering dynamic response with warm mids, articulate highs, and a tight low end that responds beautifully to your touch. Whether you’re dialing in soulful cleans or gritty overdriven tones, this guitar’s voice is versatile, rich, and unmistakably Les Paul.

From its player-friendly feel to its storied design cues, the Les Paul Standard ’50s Faded in Vintage Tobacco Burst is a testament to Gibson’s legacy of electrifying creativity. This captivating instrument is available at Haggerty’s Music, ready to be the next centerpiece of your rig or the long-sought-after upgrade on your musical journey.
