The most classic instrument in the Gibson USA Original Series Les Paul lineup, the Standard 50s boasts P-90 Pickups instead of the more common humbucker setup. P-90s hold a special place for guitar historians, the first Gibson single coil pickup of note, P-90s are known for their distinct growl and hot output, a sound that can be described as beautifully bright and ready to explode.
Other "50s" touches include the chunkier 50s style baseball bat neck profile and a buffed rosewood fingerboard with rolled edges for deep playability.
For more vintage accuracy the Gold Top features a Nitro Finish that is thinner that traditional polyurethane style. This allows a more straightforward sound.
