Signature Slash Tone And Feel
The Gibson Slash Les Paul Standard is built to deliver the unmistakable tone that has defined some of rock’s greatest moments. With a solid mahogany body and a AAA flamed maple top, this guitar offers the rich sustain and warm resonance that have made the Les Paul a legend. Every detail, from the carefully selected tonewoods to the hand-wired electronics, ensures an authentic playing experience that captures Slash’s signature sound. From searing leads to thick, driving chords, this guitar responds with power, clarity, and a touch of vintage warmth.
Custom Burstbucker Pickups
At the heart of the Slash Les Paul Standard’s sound are its Custom Burstbucker Alnico 2 pickups, designed to recreate the thick, articulate tones heard on Slash’s most iconic records. These pickups deliver a perfect balance of punch and warmth, with just the right amount of vintage character. The neck pickup offers smooth, creamy sustain for expressive soloing, while the bridge pickup cuts through with biting articulation and powerful mids. Combined with hand-wired Orange Drop capacitors, these pickups provide a wide tonal range, from warm cleans to roaring overdrive.
50s Vintage Neck For Smooth Playability
Built for comfort and control, the 50s Vintage mahogany neck on the Slash Les Paul Standard provides a substantial yet playable feel, perfect for both intricate solos and powerful rhythm playing. Its rosewood fingerboard and medium jumbo frets ensure effortless chording and smooth bending, giving you the freedom to express yourself with precision and ease. The classic trapezoid inlays add an elegant touch, while the long tenon neck joint enhances sustain and stability. This neck is crafted to feel instantly familiar in your hands, making it an extension of your playing style.
Hand-Wired Electronics With Orange Drop Capacitors
If you demand precise tonal control, the Slash Les Paul Standard features premium hand-wired electronics to keep every note on point. Orange Drop capacitors are known for their smooth, natural response, ensuring that volume and tone adjustments are fluid and musical. This setup allows seamless transitions from full-throttle overdrive to warm, expressive cleans without losing clarity or dynamics. The classic Les Paul control layout—two volume knobs, two tone knobs, and a three-way toggle switch—gives you the flexibility to shape your sound exactly how you want it, both on stage and in the studio.
Slash-Approved Details And Premium Case
Beyond its sonic power, the Slash Les Paul Standard is packed with personal touches that make it a must-have for fans and collectors. The back of the headstock features Slash’s signature “Skully” logo, while his name is proudly displayed on the truss rod cover. The cream pickguard, included but not installed, lets you choose between a sleek, stripped-down look or a more traditional Les Paul aesthetic. Completing the package is a vintage-style brown hardshell case, keeping your guitar protected wherever your music takes you. With Slash-approved Ernie Ball strings and a set of his go-to Jim Dunlop Tortex picks included, this guitar is stage-ready from the moment you open the case.
