This 2020 Gibson Les Paul Standard ’60s comes finished in the rare limited-run Tri-Burst, a finish not part of the standard production palette and only available in short supply. It shows off a truly classic maple top — not over the top, but with beautiful horizontal and diagonal flame that reacts to the light and gives it that vintage-correct character collectors want to see. The board is a nice dark rosewood, unlike the washed-out pale cuts you often find on more recent builds. The Tri-Burst sets it off in all the right ways, striking the balance of vintage style and modern Gibson precision.
This is the ’60s model, featuring the slim taper neck carve. Fast, comfortable, and unmistakably Les Paul, it feels solid in the hand while still playing quick. At 10.4 lb it has the heft of a proper Les Paul — full resonance, long sustain, and the punch you can only get when the wood has some weight behind it.
Specs include a mahogany body with carved maple top, mahogany neck with bound rosewood fingerboard, 22 medium jumbo frets, 12" radius, 24.75" scale, 1.695" nut, Burstbucker 61R and 61T pickups, handwired Orange Drop electronics, ABR-1 Tune-o-matic and stop tailpiece, and Grover Rotomatic tuners.
Condition is mint. One owner from new, smoke-free home, hardly played, and it has spent nearly all its life in the case. Very, very light use, no marks or wear. Frets are untouched, finish is flawless, and all electronics work exactly as they should. It comes with the clean original Gibson brown hardcase with plush lining, along with all original case candy intact.

The Burstbuckers deliver the right mix of warmth and bite. The neck pickup is smooth and singing, the bridge is articulate with bite, and the middle position gives you that open, woody chime. The Orange Drop harness makes the response musical and dynamic across the sweep. The ’60s neck carve is fast yet substantial, making it a perfect balance for both rhythm and lead work. The weight gives it the kind of sustain and authority you want when you plug into a proper tube amp. Paired with the reactive Tri-Burst top, this one has both sound and stage presence in spades.
Buy with confidence — this is a Gibson Les Paul Standard ’60s in a limited Tri-Burst finish, collector-grade mint with all case candy and original hardcase. A proper Les Paul in every sense — substantial, resonant, and built to be played for decades to come.
