2019 Gibson Les Paul Tribute
Summary: Early Les Pauls were known for being a bit heavy. With the Ultra-modern weight relief system on the Tribute, Gibson has carved out carefully chosen sections of the body to remove some of that extra weight without compromising tone or resonance. With this relief, you can enjoy more hours of comfortable live playing without straining your back. The Tribute offers current players an opportunity to experience the feel and response of classic Les Paul necks. Cut to a classic rounded profile, this maple neck feels instantly comfortable, ideal for lead runs as well as chords up and down the neck. The rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets is an integral part of this neck’s overall feel, providing easy fretting and ultra-smooth response. And with a Nashville Tune-o-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece, you get that vintage Les Paul sustain with this guitar.
Body: Solid (weight relieved) Mahogany with a Maple top, Cherry Sunburst satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
Neck: Set, rounded, Maple with a Rosewood fingerboard, 12” radius, 22 medium jumbo frets, 24.75” scale length, 1.695” nut width, Graph Tech nut.
Pickups/Hardware: Nashville Tun-O-Matic bridge/tailpiece, vintage deluxe tuning keys, 490R/490T humbucking pickups, two volume/two tone knobs.
Cosmetics: This guitar has a scratch on the back of the body about three inches long that was hard to photograph. (Please ask for more pictures if needed) There is also a tiny scratch in the neck pocket on the cutaway. The pickguard holes have been filled but can easily be redrilled. Overall, this guitar is in great shape.
Playability: Our in-house guitar tech has inspected, setup, and restrung this guitar with a new set of 10’s. The neck is straight, the truss rod is fully functional, and the action has been setup low and comfortable.
