Gibson Les Paul Classic

The Classic is Gibson's attempt to give players traditional looks with modern wiring flexibility. Under the hood, you've got coil splits and phase options via push-pull pots. It means you can get close to single-coil sounds without switching guitars.

Sonically, it leans brighter than the Standard models, and the weight relief makes it less punishing on the shoulder. It's ideal for players who want the Les Paul look but a bit more tonal range.

Notable Players:

• Billy Gibbons
