The Les Paul Signature "T" is built on a foundation of the same traditional tonewood combination that helped to make the Les Paul Standard legendary when it first arrived six decades ago. A carved solid Grade-AA figured maple top lends bite and articulation to the sound, while a select mahogany back-treated with Gibson's traditional weight relief to increase playing comfort and enhance resonance-contributes superb warmth and depth. A solid, quarter-sawn mahogany neck is glued in and carved in the fast 60s SlimTaperT profile, and topped with a rich brown Grade-A Granadillo fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets and traditional trapezoid inlays.
Classic Gibson construction ensures optimum playability, too, along with traditional specs like a 24 ¾" scale length, a 1 11/16" width across the PLEK-cut CorianT nut, and a 12-inch fingerboard radius for smooth, easy bending. For a blend of vintage tone and modern versatility, the Les Paul Signature "T" is loaded with a pair of Gibson's'57 ClassicT pickups, mounted "open coil" for a subtle hotrod look. Both are made in the image of the hallowed PAF humbucker of the late 1950s with Alnico II magnets in the neck position for plenty of warmth and clarity, and in the bridge position, the'57 Classic PlusT which features slightly over-wound coils for juicy crunch and wailing lead tones.
Both pickups are wax potted, too, to avoid microphonic squeal at high volume levels. Both pickups feature push-pull tone controls which provide coil splitting for authentic single-coil tones. The innovative pairing of a Tune-o-MaticT bridge and Stopbar tailpiece ensures solid sustain and precise intonation, while a set of high-quality GroverT locking tuners ensures smooth, accurate tuning.
