  • Though the Gibson Les Paul's birthday is in the fifties, it didn't achieve widespread prominence until the 1960s when rock music exploded onto the scene. During this wild-and-crazy decade, players like Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, and Eric Clapton all used Les Pauls to redefine what an electric guitar could do. These early rock stars caused the Les Paul's popularity to surge so mightily that Gibson resurrected it from the dead in 1968 after discontinuing the model entirely in favor of the SG in 1960.
    In the ensuing years, many players gravitated towards these sixties-style Les Pauls because of their thinner neck profiles and figured tops, and they have become just as legendary as their fifties forebears. Now, Gibson pays tribute to the guitars that helped kick off the rock revolution with a delightful entry in their Original Collection: the Les Paul Standard Faded '60s.

    What many people still don't understand about this series is that is not intended to be the "poor man's" Standard Les Paul.
    It's just a different thing. The satin looks as silk on it. Try to break the mold, it's a true beauty.

      It’s a Satin finish that when polished turns to a glossy finish

    Perfect guitar to put pickup covers on since it’s brighter than normal so it smooths it out 👍🏼🤟🏼

    Gregs back ... .... Yea .!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Prs probably has the finish out there super thin and hard ,, This is a good guitar to flash a thin clear coat on ,, or add a little McGuire's compound to water .. every time you wipe down will buff to a gloss

    Love Gibson, but I’m not a huge fan of this faded series. It’s just a satin finish on a $3k guitar that would typically have a gloss finish. I don’t really want to compromise at this price point… the ‘save a couple hundred dollars with an inferior finish’ argument isn’t making sense to me. (When I’m still spending close to $3k.).

      I've got the gloss Les Paul Standard 60s. I wouldn't get this in a million years to save a few hundred bucks.
