Associated with Les Paul, she also influenced Gibson guitar designs, notably through instruments with floral styling. This Les Paul Standard Signature captures that spirit by basing itself on a Goldtop model supposedly made for her, recognizable by its matching \u003cstrong\u003epickguard\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003earmrest\u003c\/strong\u003e, while staying true to the fundamentals of a Les Paul Standard.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWho Is It For, and What Styles?\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis Gibson is aimed at \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate to advanced\u003c\/strong\u003e guitarists seeking an inspiring Les Paul, credible both in the studio and live. Its balance of warmth, definition, and sustain makes it very comfortable in \u003cstrong\u003eblues\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eclassic rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecountry\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003epop\u003c\/strong\u003e, and even \u003cstrong\u003ejazz\u003c\/strong\u003e when using the neck pickup and tone controls. The \u003cstrong\u003eSlimTaper\u003c\/strong\u003e neck profile promotes smooth playing, ideal for fast runs, clean bends, and comfortable accompaniment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSound\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe combination of a \u003cstrong\u003emahogany body\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003emaple cap\u003c\/strong\u003e is at the heart of the Les Paul character: mahogany provides a rich foundation, dense mids, and generous sustain, while maple adds attack and precision, useful for clarity in chords. The Burstbuckers enhance this \"vintage\" tone: the \u003cstrong\u003eBurstbucker 2 (neck)\u003c\/strong\u003e delivers round, singing, and creamy sounds, perfect for thick leads and soft rhythms, while the \u003cstrong\u003eBurstbucker 3 (bridge)\u003c\/strong\u003e pushes harder, with more bite and presence for riffs and solos that need to cut through the mix. Hand-wired circuitry and \u003cstrong\u003eOrange Drop capacitors\u003c\/strong\u003e contribute to a gradual tone response, practical for shaping sounds from warm clean to articulated crunch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:11;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eLes Paul\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eGraph Tech\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:12;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003emahogany\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInlays\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eacrylic trapezoid\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:13;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003emaple\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eABR-1 Tune-O-Matic\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:4;--wb-r:14;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esingle-ply;
