Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s Double Trouble - Vintage Tobacco Sunburst
Vintage Vibe, Modern Mojo: A Limited-Run Les Paul with Classic Character
The Gibson Les Paul Standard 50s Double Trouble in Vintage Tobacco Sunburst is a stunning tribute to the golden era of electric guitar design—with a few unique twists that set it apart. This limited-edition model maintains all the appointments that make the Les Paul Standard 50s so revered, from the solid, non-weight-relieved mahogany body with an AA figured maple top to the rounded 50s-style neck and hand-wired electronics. What makes this version extra special? The exposed Double Classic White-bobbin Burstbucker pickups and a beautifully aged "Vintage" gloss finish that offers the subtle character of a well-loved original.
Custom Shop Look and Feel at a Production Model Price
The Burstbucker 1 and 2 pickups, handcrafted in the Gibson Pickup Shop, are calibrated for vintage-accurate tone and loaded with Alnico 2 magnets for rich, expressive output. Unlike standard models, these pickups are left uncovered to show off their double white bobbins, a nod to some of the most collectible Les Pauls in history. The nitrocellulose lacquer finish, though brand new, is tinted to evoke the gentle fading of a guitar that's spent years in the spotlight. And because each one is individually hand-sprayed, no two burst patterns are exactly the same.
Iconic Specs, Timeless Sound
From the graph tech nut to the aged gold Top Hat knobs, everything about the Les Paul Standard 50s Double Trouble screams vintage authenticity. The ABR-1 bridge, aluminum stop bar tailpiece, and Vintage Deluxe tuners with keystone buttons ensure smooth operation and classic style. Internally, it’s wired with audio taper pots and Orange Drop capacitors, making this guitar not just a looker, but a true tone machine.
Limited to 500 Worldwide
Only 500 guitars per finish are being produced, making the Double Trouble not just an incredible player’s guitar, but a collectible piece of Gibson history. Whether you're a fan of vintage aesthetics, a tone chaser, or just want something truly special, this Les Paul delivers with both style and sonic power.
