General

Part of Gibson's Modern Collection, this Les Paul Special Tribute series electric guitar is genuinely American and comes with a set of illustrious 490R and 490T open-coil humbuckers strapped to its single-cut mahogany body. This pair of pickups assures you of rich and forceful sound no matter the style, while the satin-gloss nitrocellulose finish make for the strictly elegant aesthetics of this Special Tribute Les Paul, which simply looks beautifully timeless and comes complete with a matching gig bag and the Gibson Accessory Kit.

The Modern Collection Les Paul Special Tribute: Trusty Feel

As part of their tried-and-tested guitar-crafting recipe, Gibson have blessed the Les Paul Special Tribute with a 24.75" scale length and a modern 12" fretboard radius, which combine with a rounded neck and the 22 medium jumbo frets fitted to a rosewood fretboard for a fully authentic Gibson playing experience and matching sound quality. Here, the compensated wrap-around bridge forms the bedrock for stable tuning, solid resonance and sweet sustain, while smaller but no less insignificant details such as the Vintage Deluxe guitars only add to the respectable pedigree this Gibson electric boasts.

Wrote the following about Gibson Modern Collection Les Paul Special Tribute Humbucker Ebony Vintage Satin Electric Guitar with Gig Bag
Well it wasn’t the one I was really looking at but at a price that is less than the going pre-owned rate this was a no brainier purchase. With this particular model being discontinued a discount of over £200 was too good to miss, and it’s a fine guitar - by definition without all the cosmetic niceties it is, nevertheless, well made, well finished and plays like a dream. Excellent range of tones through an Orange 100, great sustain and not as heavy as some of the LP models. I’m not convinced by the tuners but time will tell, but can’t see any other problems. Thanks to BAX for excellent service and a bargain
