The Gibson Les Paul Classic was designed as a nod to the early Les Paul models while incorporating features that suited the needs of modern players. This 2000 example features a Tobacco Burst finish over a carved maple top and mahogany body, along with a slim '60s neck profile and Gibson 496R and 500T ceramic humbuckers. The combination of traditional Les Paul construction and higher-output electronics gives this model its own place within Gibson's lineup from the late '90s and early 2000s. This guitar remains in a classic configuration for the era, with its original appointments and familiar Les Paul styling intact. A solid example of a Les Paul Classic from the turn of the century, it offers a look at one of Gibson's most popular variations of the model. Includes OHSC.
