Gibson Les Paul Standard 2017 T Electric Guitar Gibson has released the Les Paul Standard 2017 T electric guitar with a grade AAA flame maple top .
Its mahogany back employs Gibson ’ s new Ultra-Modern weight relief pattern and its asymmetrical slim-taper neck profile with a compound-radius fingerboard and rolled binding improves comfort , speed , and bend-ability .
The guitar is loaded with a set of upgraded BurstBucker Pro pickups , which are based on the blueprint for late ‘ 50s PAF humbuckers . These pickups offer coil-tapping capabilities and the independent tone controls also feature push / pull pots . For reverse-phase tones , users pull up tone control for the neck pickup or pop the bridge pickup ’ s tone control up to tap into Gibson ’ s Pure Bypass setting , which routes that pickup straight through the output jack and into the amplifier , bypassing the volume and tone controls .
