AWESOME GIBSON LES PAUL STANDARD 2016-T in FireballThis guitar has spent all but a few hours in the case.  I bought it late last year from Sweetwater Music and decided I would like to utilize the investment to pursue acoustic guitar.  The tone on this guitar is amazing.  The split-coil is amazing.  You can definitely get the classic Les Paul tone, along with countless other tones.  Another feature I love is the push-pull on the tone knob that give you a direct signal to the output jack.  This definitely boosts the output considerably.  I will include the specs from the Sweetwater site: A Les Paul That's Far More Than Standard!You can't beat the Gibson Les Paul Standard solid body electric guitar for iconic vintage tone with uncompromising playability. You'll love the Les Paul Standard's premium features, like the "Modern" weight-relieved body that's lighter in weight but still packs ample sustain. The mahogany neck sports a '60s profile for fast and fluid fretwork, and the compound radius rosewood fretboard makes the Les Paul Standard perfect for both rhythm and lead roles. And with dual Burstbucker Pro pickups, with coil tapping to switch between humbucking and single-coil operation, you'll have all the classic guitar tone you can handle with the Gibson Les Paul Standard!Gibson Les Paul Standard Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:Mahogany body with AAA flamed maple top'60s neck profile with compound radius fingerboardBurstbucker Pro pickups with coil tapsPLEK'd for precision playabilityThe Les Paul recipe for sustain - mahogany body with AAA flamed maple topGibson's Les Paul Standard gives you the robust sustain you need for hot liquid solos and massive power chords. What's Gibson's secret? A major part of the Les Paul's tonewood recipe is the fusion of a maple top on a mahogany body. This combination is largely responsible for the legendary Les Paul sound, as well the LP's reputation for being rather heavy. But fear not! Modern weight relief has been scientifically applied to the Les Paul Standard, giving you all the sustain, without the pain.'60s neck profile with compound radius fingerboardMany guitarists consider Gibson's Slim Taper neck the most playable Les Paul neck ever made. Being huge fans of the benefits of a compound radius fretboard, Sweetwater guitarists are excited that Gibson is joining their Slim Taper neck with a compound radius fretboard, making the playability even better. The fingerboard is rounder near the nut for easy chord-grabbing and rhythm playing. As your playing heats up and moves up the fretboard, the radius flattens out for easier runs and big, big string bends.Pickups deliver true Les Paul sound - and then someThe Les Paul Standard features Burstbucker Pro pickups that give you everything you need for a classic humbucking sound. But there's more! The volume and tone knobs feature a push-pull configuration that allows you to choose between classic humbuckers and single coils. You can run both pickups alongside each other in or out of phase, and you can even send the bridge pickup directly to the jack output for added volume and brightness.PLEK'd for precision playabilityThis Gibson Les Paul Standard 2016 T feels fast and precise, thanks in large part to PLEK processing.
