Gibson's 2015 updates offer enhanced playability

Comfort and playability were two of Gibson's primary concerns when they were designing this 2015 Les Paul Special Double Cutaway solidbody electric guitar. This guitar's neck and fretboard are .050" wider on each side, making bends and vibrato much easier on its outer strings. Speaking of this Les Paul Standards's silky-smooth fretboard, it's now sanded and buffed to perfection with an all-new oil treatment, making it easy for you to display your fast fretwork. Also, Gibson's new patent-pending Zero Fret Nut can be easily adjusted with a hex key if your action is too high - no filing necessary. The Gibson Les Paul Special Double Cutaway plays better than ever, thanks to a new PLEK process and a new lower fret wire.

G-Force automatic tuning system delivers perfect intonation - and more

If you loved Gibson's Min-ETune tuning system, then you'll love their newly developed G-Force even more. Thanks to G-Force, not only can you tune your 2015 Les Paul Special Double Cutaway solidbody electric guitar with a single strum, but you can also make use of alternate tunings without having to retune or switch guitars. You can also calibrate your guitar to an external source. Say you have a vintage piano that's not quite tuned to A440. Now, thanks to G-Force, the piano and your guitar can play together beautifully with no tuning hassles. And thanks to Sweetwater's 55-point Guitar Evaluation, you know your Les Paul Special Double Cutaway will play beautifully right out of the box!

Astounding tonal versatility from P-90 single-coil pickups

The Gibson Les Paul Special Double Cutaway is fitted with two P-90 pickups. Gibson's first successful single-coil pickup, the P-90, can be heard on countless classic recordings. With its biting treble and high output, the P-90 cleans up nicely when you roll back your guitar's volume pot. And when you hit your amp hard, the P-90 really wails. It's an amazingly versatile pickup that's great for any style of music. The Les Paul Special's wraparound bridge/tailpiece bridge will ensure that your already captivating tone resonates and sustains with exquisite sweetness.
