The Les Paul Standard 60s Double Trouble delivers all of the features and performance of Gibson's regular Les Paul™ Standard 60s models but with even more vintage appeal. These limited-run Les Paul models differ from Gibson's standard Les Paul Standard 60s models in two respects.

First, the Burstbucker™ 61R and Burstbucker 61T humbucker™ pickups are left uncovered, and each has Double Classic White bobbins and is fitted with the standard Alnico 5 magnets. The second difference is in the finish.

The finish colours are “Vintage” variations on Gibson's standard nitrocellulose lacquer finishes. Gibson's standard gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finishes represent the finishes on brand-new models from the 1950s, while the full-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer Vintage finishes on the Les Paul Standard 60s Double Trouble models are slightly faded when compared to the standard versions, like the subtly faded light vintage aging that occurs over several years.

The burst patterns vary somewhat from guitar to guitar since each is individually hand-sprayed. Of course, all of the standard features that make the Les Paul Standard 60s models so widely loved are all still here, including a solid, non-weight-relieved mahogany body with an AA figured Of course, all of the standard features that make the Les Paul Standard 60s models so widely loved are all still here, including a solid, non-weight-relieved mahogany body with an AA figured maple top and a SlimTaper™ profile mahogany neck with a rosewood fretboard, 22 medium jumbo frets, and trapezoid inlays.

The Les Paul Standard 60s Double Trouble is equipped with an ABR-1, the classic-style Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, an aluminium Stop Bar tailpiece, Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with Kidney buttons, and gold Top Hat knobs with silver reflectors and dial pointers. The uncovered Burstbucker™ 61R (neck) and Burstbucker 61T (bridge) pickups are internally the same as their standard Burstbucker counterparts, with the exception of the Double Classic White bobbins. They are handcrafted in the Gibson Pickup Shop, loaded with Alnico 5 magnets, and hand-wired with audio taper potentiometers and Orange Drop® capacitors. The Double Classic White pickup bobbins and Vintage finishes combine to give the Les Paul Standard 60s Double Trouble an elegant vintage vibe. While they have a vintage-style finish and an accessible price, production is limited to only 500 guitars in each colour, meaning there’s limited availability, so act fast and get your favourite now while you still can!
