Sunburst suits the familiar Les Paul shape of this 2015 Gibson Memphis Les Paul ES, while the semi-hollow construction gives the model a different character from a traditional solidbody Les Paul. The design combines a maple center block with hollowed body sections, keeping the classic carved-top silhouette while opening up the response. A pair of humbuckers provides the familiar range of Gibson tones, from clear cleans to thicker overdrive. It’s an interesting variation on the Les Paul format and a distinctive example from Gibson Memphis’s period of producing semi-hollow instruments.
