Gibson has brought a forgotten gem back to life — the Les Paul ’70s Deluxe! First released in 1969, the Deluxe saw the introduction of the legendary mini humbucker to the Les Paul lineup; keeping noise and interference at bay like a full-sized humbucker, but projecting a brighter tone with more upper mid-range punch.
Sporting features inspired by those early models from the 1970s, this time-honoured Les Paul will take you back in time to one of the most progressive eras in rock ‘n’ roll history!
Key Features
- Mahogany Construction — This timeless tonewood (used for the body/neck) yields the thick and sustain-rich sound synonymous with Gibson guitars.
- Non-Weight Relieved Body — Period-correct design; gives the instrument a substantial feel and captures that iconic vintage sound.
- Bound Maple Top — Adds bright complexities into the tonal mix, enhancing top-end bite and improving note clarity.
- Rounded “C”-Shaped Neck — Old-school profile delivers a “time capsule” feel that’ll strongly appeal to traditionalists.
