The Gibson Les Paul '70s Tribute Etune Electric Guitar Gold Top is a new addition to Gibson's popular Tribute series, with this version featuring the Min-Etune system, which automatically changes the guitar's tuning. The Gibson Les Paul '70s Tribute Etune features a traditional, weight-relieved mahogany body with a maple top. The mahogany neck has a '70s rounded profile with volute and is topped by a rosewood fingerboard, decorated with trapezoid inlays.
The '70s Tribute Les Paul Min-Etune has a pair of black, uncovered Dirty Fingers humbucker pickups, controlled by volume and tone knobs and a 3-way pickup selector switch, offering classic '70s tones from an easily playable instrument. The Min-Etune system by Tronical is fitted to the headstock of the guitar, and works with the guitar's machine heads to automatically tune the guitar in real time based on the built-in switchable tuning presets.
While other auto-tuning guitars use signal processing to change the tuning of the sound of each string when amplified, the Min-Etune changes the tuning of the actual string, meaning that the string tension and acoustic sound of each string is what is heard. The Min-Etune system features 12 factory preset tunings, as well as six user-programmable tunings. The Min-Etune fits subtly to the back of the headstock, ensuring that the guitar's tonal qualities and playability are not compromised. The LP '70s Tribute Etune is finished with a Gold top and comes with a premium gig bag.
