Wildwoodians, we are proud to present you with a true exemplar of Les Paul tone: a Wildwood Spec reissue of the legendary 1957 Les Paul Standard. These maple-topped beauties feature a host of true-to-vintage appointments that give them the sort of tone that haunts the dreams of Les Paul enthusiasts.
Everything starts with quality tonewoods--warm, round-sounding mahogany and crisp, clear maple, and a sweet-sounding rosewood fretboard. Once they pick out some good-sounding wood, the master luthiers at the Gibson Custom Shop attach everything together using hot hide glue. Using hide glue is a time-consuming old-world manufacturing technique that pays incredible sonic dividends because it creates the strongest possible connection between each piece of wood to build as much resonance as possible. That means that these pretty golden girls sing loud and proud even when unplugged!
When you do plug in, you will be amazed at how well the natural acoustic voice of these instruments translates to huge electrified tone. Each one comes equipped with Custom Shop humbuckers that seem to capture all of our favorite parts of old pickups. Warm, woody low end, raspy, punchy midrange, and sweet, singing high end. If vintage-style punch 'n' crunch are your thing, you'll find yourself utterly enamored with the sound of the Wildwood Spec '57 Standard.
