The Story

2016 Les Paul Roasted Birdseye Electric Guitar Honey Burst

This is the new for 2016 Gibson Les Paul Birdseye, a Les Paul with unique appearance thanks to the torrified birdseye maple top on a modern weight relieved mahogany body and a Honey Burst finish. We’re digging how the Honey Burst has a darker appearance than usual thanks to the torrified top. The guitar is loaded with two ’57 Classic and Classic Plus humbuckers, and topped with locking Grover tuners for reliable tuning in the studio or on stage.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Paperwork
