Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: The truss rod and bridge were lightly adjusted. All frets were leveled, re-crowned, and polished. No further work was needed. 

The 2016 Gibson Les Paul Traditional is a beautifully classic take on the iconic formula, pairing an AA figured maple top with a warm mahogany body for rich sustain and that unmistakable Les Paul authority. The comfortable 60s Rounded mahogany neck fills the hand just right, while the rosewood board keeps everything smooth and familiar. Loaded with a ’57 Classic and ’57 Classic Plus, it delivers creamy vintage warmth, articulate bite, and singing leads that feel effortless at any volume. With its original hardcase and timeless build, this Les Paul is a confident long-term investment—built to age gracefully and inspire for years of playing.
