Gibson Les Paul Music City Special 50th Anniversary Ebony

50 Years Of Sound History - The Les Paul Music City Special In Anniversary Style!

The Les Paul Music City Special - 50th Anniversary is an updated, modern take on two historic Gibson models, largely inspired by the 1970s Marauder designed by Bill Lawrence and carrying a hint of the Music City Jr. in its DNA. Over the years the Marauder has been played by artists such as Adam Jones and Paul Stanley. This unique anniversary model pays tribute to the origins of Gibson production in Nashville and celebrates 50 years of Gibson guitars crafted to world-class standards in Music City, offering modern players outstanding value. The lightweight, contoured body is made from solid poplar. The maple neck features a fast, comfortable Slim Taper profile and is topped with a striped ebony fretboard with acrylic dot inlays and 22 medium-jumbo frets. The 12-inch fretboard radius makes open-position chords and bends higher up the neck equally effortless.

The hardware is chrome-plated, including the Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, the aluminum stopbar tailpiece, Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners and the output jack plate cover. A black five-ply pickguard houses two Gibson 70s Tribute humbuckers wired to an intuitive, comfortable control layout consisting of master volume and master tone controls with black top-hat knobs and a 3-way pickup selector switch. A high-quality soft shell case ships with the Les Paul Music City Special - 50th Anniversary to keep it safe in storage or transit. The Les Paul Music City Special - 50th Anniversary is available in Ebony, Wine Red and Tobacco Burst with a gloss nitrocellulose finish, and each model features a commemorative 50th Anniversary truss rod cover. The Les Paul Music City Special - 50th Anniversary is limited to just 500 instruments in each of the three colors, so secure your favorite while stocks last!
