1976 Gibson Les Paul Standard (Converted from Deluxe)

Elevate your guitar collection with this stunning 1976 Gibson Les Paul, a remarkable instrument that has been lovingly converted from its original Deluxe model. With nearly five decades of history under its belt, this Les Paul is not only a fantastic player but also a tangible piece of musical heritage.

This guitar is in great playing condition, featuring minimal fret wear and a beautiful low-action setup that allows for effortless playability. Its natural distress tells the story of a well-loved instrument, with delightful bumps, scratches, and bruises that add character to its vintage appearance. The original Gibson chainsaw case is included, ensuring that your guitar is protected in style.

In my very humble opinion, these 70s Les Paul players guitars are a great value. If you were to go to Murphy Lab today and order one with a maple neck, it would cost thousands more. This is the real deal distressed Les Paul with more mojo than anything out of Murphy Labs! Compare it yourself!

**Maple Neck Evolution:**

During the mid-1970s, Gibson utilized maple necks, which contributed to the unique tonal qualities and sustain of the instrument. Maple, known for its strength and brightness, provided a clear and articulated sound that complemented the Les Paul’s mahogany body. Today, maple necks are still favored by many for their response and stability.

Since its establishment in 1902, Gibson Guitar Corporation has gained a legendary status in the music industry. The Les Paul model, first introduced in 1952, has become one of the most iconic electric guitars in history, revered by musicians across all genres. The craftsmanship and tonal quality of Gibson guitars have made them a preferred choice for countless rock, blues, and jazz legends.
