The Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s Heritage Cherry Sunburst Lefthand embodies the visual and tonal ideals of the legendary "Burst" Les Pauls of the 1950s. Accordingly, the left-handed guitar turns out to be the perfect instrument for Blues and rock. While the traditional construction relies on a mahogany body without weight relief, the obligatory maple top and a pleasantly rounded mahogany neck, Gibson Burstbucker pickups provide top-class sounds with unmistakable vintage character. Last but not least, the hardware equipment with Tune-O-Matic bridge and Vintage Deluxe tuners, proven since the Fifties, completes the Les Paul Standard '50s Heritage Cherry Sunburst Lefthand by Gibson.

The traditional construction of the Les Paul Standard '50s Lefthand pays special attention to an authentic playing feel and a natural vintage sound. Under the nitrocellulose finish, a glued mahogany neck is used alongside the solid mahogany body without weight relief and the lightly flamed maple top. The "Vintage 50s" neck profile with a pleasant rounding creates the best conditions for implementing classic blues and rock playing techniques on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.

For the pickup of the Les Paul Standard '50s Gibson chooses a set of the popular burstbucker pickups, which carry the genes of the legendary PAF humbuckers. Equipped with Alnico II magnets and unwound, unwaxed coils, the pickups elicit airy, light Vintage sounds with a vocal midrange and lively dynamics from the guitar amp, whose métier is the classic styles of Blues and rock. The more powerful bridge pickup here elicits a harmonic Overdrive from the amplifier with well-dosed assertiveness. The hand-wired circuit with individual volume and tone pots for each pickup and "Orange Drop" capacitors allows precise adjustment of the guitar sound.

Last but not least, Gibson completes the Les Paul Standard '50s Heritage Cherry Sunburst Lefthand with hardware features established since the Fifties. The lightweight aluminium stopbar guides the strings over the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, whose adjustment options guarantee precise intonation and comfortable string action. At the headstock, the strings run over a Graph Tech saddle to the precise Vintage Deluxe tuners, which not only keep the electric guitar securely in tune but also support the historic look with single-ring keystone wings.
