    The High Performance Traditional guitar gorgeously blends old and new for a premium Les Paul. The Les Paul Traditional 2016 HP is the modern incarnation of the original Gibson Les Paul with a futuristic set of premium, high-performance features.


    It boasts a new and exclusive fast-access heel, developed specifically for the Gibson USA High Performance lineup, to allow unprecedented access to the high notes - which, combined with our new soloist neck width, provides the fastest and most comfortable Traditional Les Paul neck you’ve ever played. Titanium metal for the saddles and the adjustable zero-fret nut delivers a bright, crisp tone, while being virtually indestructible and ensuring total, personalized control over the action. A pair of ‘57 Classic humbuckers delivers classic Les Paul tones, while genuine mother of pearl inlays and a luxurious aluminum case add to this premium guitar’s gestalt.


    Gibson 2016 HP Les Paul Traditional Premium with Case Features:

    • Next-Generation G FORCE Tuners
    • Sturdier, Noiseless Toggle Switch
    • Titanium Saddles
    • Luxury Aluminum Case
    • Soloist Neck Width
    • Mother-of-Pearl Inlays
    • AAA Maple Top
    • Gold Plated Multi-Contact Jack
    • Fast-Access Neck Heel
    • Titanium Adjustable Zero-Fret Nut

    Gibson’s rounded XL profile partners up with the new soloist neck width and fast-access heel for mind-boggling playability. Add an adjustable titanium zero-fret nut for low-as-it-goes action and our precise Plek and hand-finished setup and this is the best playing Traditional you’ve ever experienced.


    A carved maple top and solid mahogany back with no weight relief deliver the meaty, thick tones of the Les Pauls that legends were made of. A pair of ’57 Classic pickups are inspired by Gibson’s hallowed PAF humbuckers for outstanding depth and dimension, with added clarity and sustain resulting from a nut and bridge saddles made from titanium metal.


    This High Performance Traditional gorgeously blends old and new with a thicker one-piece fingerboard with hand-rubbed oil finish, G-Force tuners, genuine mother-of-pearl inlays, upgraded plastics, and an exclusive labor-intensive hand-applied process for a smooth high-gloss nitrocellulose finish.
