Though the guitar may be brand-new, this helps the woods react and sound like a great vintage instrument. The Sunken Treasure's body, top, and neck are made from rich-looking mahogany. And the fretboard is a nice slab of sunken bullet wood. This combination gives the guitar a straightforward look while maintaining the forward midrange Les Pauls have always been known for.Classic Les Paul toneSonically, the Les Paul Sunken Treasure is simply a great sounding Les Paul. The naturally aged tonewoods deliver classic sustain and warmth. And the guitar is outfitted with a pair of Gibson's popular '57 Classic humbucking pickups. These pickups are some of the most respected re-creations of the original PAF humbuckers that defined the sound of rock guitar. And the 4-knob and 3-way toggle layout will be immediately familiar to all Gibson aficionados.Limited editionBecause of the finite nature of these tonewoods, the production run of the Les Paul Sunken Treasures is extremely limited. Only 150 of these electric guitars were being produced for worldwide distribution. And because there simply aren't the materials to build more, when these guitars are gone, they're truly gone.
