Gibson USA LPS500PUNH1 Les Paul Standard '50s Figured Top Electric Guitar - Dark Purple Burst

The Les Paul Standard '50s Figured Top returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played, and loved — shaping sound across generations and genres of music. Paying tribute to Gibson’s Golden Era of Innovation, this model brings authentic craftsmanship and vintage character back to life. Available now at Sadek Music, it features a solid mahogany body with an AA figured maple top, finished in a distinctive translucent custom color nitrocellulose lacquer that highlights the maple’s natural beauty. The mahogany neck is carved with a rounded ’50s Vintage profile and paired with a rosewood fingerboard adorned with classic trapezoid inlays.

Hardware appointments stay true to tradition, including an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, and gold Top Hat knobs. For tone, the calibrated Burstbucker™ 1 (neck) and Burstbucker 2 (bridge) pickups — loaded with Alnico 2 magnets — deliver the warmth, bite, and dynamic range that defined the era. Wired with audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop® capacitors, they provide smooth control and timeless PAF-inspired sound. A Gibson hardshell case is also included to keep your instrument protected.
