The electrical tone conversion of the Gibson 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS DoubleGold is handled by two Gibson Custombuckers in neck and bridge positions. Equipped with Alnico III magnets and non-waxed coils, the humbuckers prove to be authentic PAF recreations and deliver a particularly warm vintage sound. Cleanly articulating basses, a wide and vocal midrange spectrum, and brilliant highs, together with the organic dynamics, support expressive electric guitar playing in both the clean and overdrive channels. The hand-wired circuitry allows for particularly sensitive and harmonic adjustment of the sound thanks to the authentic oil-paper capacitors.
Six Kluson vintage-style tuners with historically correct single-ring action guarantee stable and precise tuning.
