Hungrycat Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I need some help from you people. I found a couple pictures online of a Les Paul Classic and I need to know more about it so I can hunt one down. It was a dark tobacco sunburst and had the old-school Gibson logo like is on the mandolins and banjos: What exactly is it? When were they made? Did they come in multiple finishes? Thanks in advance.

Hungrycat Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Only 400, eh? That will make it even more fun to get one and make unspeakable mods to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 2007 Guitar of the Week. They made up to 400 of each. http://www.gibson.com/en%2Dus/Divisions/Gibson%20USA/Guitar%20of%20the%20Week/LP%5FClassic%5FAntique%5FM%5FWk33/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Only 400, eh? That will make it even more fun to get one and make unspeakable mods to it. It's more or less a Classic 60's with an antique burst, not really desirable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 It's more or less a Classic 60's with an antique burst, not really desirable. Really? This one is easily in the top 5 best sounding and playing Les Pauls I've ever tried in 35+ years as a player. Just as a matter of interest, Malchik, I'm very curious to know in what regard(s) you find a '1960 Classic' in Vintage Sunburst "not really desirable"? According to the info posted by R9 the instrument the OP is talking about has a mahogany cap and '57 Classic / '57 Classic+ p-ups so it's not quite the same as a regular '1960 Classic' anyhow. P.

Hungrycat Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 I don't think he was putting down the LP Classic, just saying that it's not more desirable than any other of the numerous models of LPs even though it's a limited edition. And it is basically the same, but with a few tweaks like the mahogany top, pickups, and logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
