Description:	The passing of the incomparable Les Paul in August 2009 broke the hearts of guitar enthusiasts around the world. What can never be broken, though, is the legacy of innovation and creativity that he built during 94 years of constant musicianship. Though the original guitar he designed in 1952 has since informed every Gibson guitar, our engineers were inspired anew to hand craft a guitar just the way Les demanded it nearly 60 years ago. Never before has a Les Paul guitar been so designed to completely Les' original specifications. Until now. Anchored by a patent golden mahogany body, maple top and rosewood fingerboard, the Les Paul Tribute 1952 is equipped with an all-new bridge that's an exact replica of Les' original 1952nd Our luthiers have also added historical interest with details like stamping "prototype" into the back of the peg head and staying true to Les' preference for P-90 pickups. The Les Paul Tribute 1952 honors the most important figure in all history of guitar and the guitar he designed and loved.  Color The top of the Les Paul Tribute 1952 comes in a classically beautiful gold finish, just as Les's first Les Paul model guitars did. The rim, back and neck showcase the beautiful grain patterns of Grade A mahogany and are treated to many coats of high-gloss lacquer. This lacquer accentuates the beautiful wood grain patterns of the mahogany body and protects its maple top.   Surface Texture The 90-sheen lacquer finish gives the Les Paul Tribute 1952 a sleek surface that's smooth to the touch.   Process The Les Paul Tribute 1952 gets it finish by hand in a process that demands several coats and many hours. Unlike many other manufacturers who settle for a polyurethane finish, Gibson opts for a nitro cellulose finish that will encourage the natural vibration of the instrument for a pure tone. In addition, a nitro finish is very porous and actually gets thinner over time. That way your guitar's wood can breathe and age beautifully. Species Each Les Paul Tribute 1952 is topped with a two-piece maple top that fits snugly onto a two-piece mahogany body. Top and body are bonded together with ultra-strong Franklin Titebond glue 50th This wood combination yields not only a gorgeous exterior but that is a specific yet versatile tone that many guitarists have come to demand. Grade This Les Paul's maple top is Grade C and Its mahogany body is Grade A. Design The gleaming gold finish of the Les Paul Tribute 1952 is complemented with stunning antique binding, done painstakingly by hand in Gibson's Nashville, TN shop. Average Weight The average weight of a Les Paul Tribute 1952 body is 5.70. lbs Tonal Characteristics The mahogany body of the Les Paul Tribute 1952 cranks out tone that is somewhat soft, but extremely well-balanced, with good grind and bite. It has the potential for good depth, with full (though not super-tight) lows, velvety highs and a slightly compressed response. Its maple cap adds snap, sizzle and sustain. The guitar's resonance, therefore benefits from not having any bridge or stopbar holes.
