Gibson Les Paul HP 2013, Viper Blue

This Gibson Les Paul HP takes the classic Les Paul formula and builds it for modern players who want speed, comfort and convenience. The mahogany body and figured maple top deliver that thick, sustaining Les Paul tone with plenty of bite on top. At a manageable weight, it’s easy to play through a full night. The Rhythm Pro and Lead Pro+ humbuckers cover a lot of ground, from warm, singing neck leads to a punchy bridge that drives an amp into rich, articulate crunch without turning muddy. The asymmetrical SlimTaper neck is shaped to fit the natural curve of your hand. The wider nut gives your fingers extra room, and the compound-radius fingerboard is comfortable for chords near the nut and flattens out higher up for low action and bends that won’t choke out. G-FORCE automatic tuners get it in tune in seconds, and it comes in its original hardshell case.
