I bought one of these in "no burst". I have gone over it in depth along with a couple other players. The workmanship is flawless in every way.

i bought a 2019 classic in translucent cherry and my first instinct was to go look under the pickguard to make sure my top wasn’t being scratched (even though i’m a pickguard-on guy). i was PLEASANTLY surprised to see that whoever put on the pickguard placed a little piece of felt under that infamous nut, to protect it from scratching. I don’t known if that’s standard or someone was just being considerate, but i’m very pleased.

Really glad that Gibson is finally turning it around after floundering for the better part of the decade. Though there is something that I'll give the credit for doing in the last couple of years: removable pickgaurds with now screws. I really liked that idea and really wish they kept going with that.

I bought one of these from Chuck Levins, 2019 60's in Bourbon Burst which is closest thing I could find to the old-school Tabaco burst. The top on mine could easily pass as a AAA or 10-top. It's beautiful, plays great, and 8.4 Lbs. I like you tried both the 50's and 60's, and the 60's came home with me for your same reasons as well. Cheers.

Thank you for the comprehensive review. Very refreshing change from commercials packaged as reviews, i.e., demos.

This video sold me on the Gibson Les Paul 60's. I picked one up almost two years ago after watching this video. Still love the guitar. Thanks Trogly.

Great review and one to measure all the others by! Overall, it looks like Gibson has upped their game - not perfected, but improved.

Nothing Gibson makes is historically accurate. The original Burst feature Brazilian rosewood fingerboards. That wood is outright illegal to harvest or they are very, very, very difficult to get.

After putting the guitar down for two plus years to complete a master's degree it was hard to get enthusiastic to play again until I saw these new Les Pauls. My 57 reissue Goldtop sounds great but I've never been completely satisfied because of the baseball bat neck. I had a Classic and the neck was more my fit. My new Les Paul Standard is wonderful and a perfect fit. The flame top is gorgeous and all and all it's great all the way around.

Got a 50’s Standard (coming from PRS 594) I’m super impressed. Great guitar, great value.

I went to guitar center for some strings and would of bought this guitar in a heart beat if I had the money. It's rare to click with a guitar like that. I think gibson is really stepping up on the build quality side of things and I hope they keep it up!

Bought one of these 2 weeks ago, a brand new '19 model and it had a little felt "washer' on the end of the pick-guard screw that left a dent in the top of the guitar in the review. No dent in mine. Love your reviews!

Just purchased one a few days ago. Absolutely impressed with it. The 61 Burstbuckers are excellent and the guitar is flawless. Fantastic. BTW, they did fix the pickguard issue. mine has a protective cover on the screw/bolt end now.

Beautiful Iced Tea finish on this example. I'm glad to see Gibson appears to be heading in the right direction. It's all any Gibson fan ever wanted. Like you said, they need to keep it going and refine the fit and finish until it's commensurate with the cost of the guitar.

Glad Gibson got back to the basics of what a Les Paul is, I ordered my bourbon Burst tonight. Thanks for the review.

Looks very much like my 2016 Les Paul Traditional. Iced tea burst (I'm Canadian so it reminds me more of a Maple Burst) Same 50's/60's style of chuncky neck. No buzzes or bells. And no weight relief. Mine weighs between 12-14 lbs. I absolutely love it! Keep on Rocking in the Free World Trogly!

I just wanted to let you know how good you're playing these days.

I put an aluminum Gotoh tailpiece on my 03 LP smartwood and it made a big difference in sustain and note “chime”. That and a Gotoh Nashville bridge, an often overlooked upgrade.

Glad to see gibson getting back to basics on the standards. I wonder if the slightly lower prices are going to affect prices of slightly older models.

Man, I think that sounds fantastic; and iced tea burst is my favorite LP finish! If that were left handed (and I had a spare 2.5k) I'd totally buy

the flametop on that thing is exquisite! also dig the grover tuners.

Stunning guitars. Finally bought myself a 50s model in 2020.

Something I do with all the gibsons I buy is sand the fretboard progressively from 400 grit to 2000 grit including the fret marker inlays as well as detail the binding and nibs, then polish the inlays with rubbing compound / mothers...it usually takes about an hour to do...you would be amazed how much of a difference it makes in both looks and feel...perhaps try it sometime. I enjoy your reviews on these gibsons thanks.

Wow! Now THAT’S a guitar! I love how they nailed all of the important details while still throwing in some nuanced upgrades, like the control plate and output jack cover. This is what a standard needs to be! QC aside (and lets be honest here, under new management and a new system of doing things, mistakes will be made), I think they nailed it.

Super stoked about the LP Jr with the single dog ear p90

I loved the dramatic introduction of this video! I love your reviews dude! Hugs from a guitar geek in Sweden!

I bought a new Standard '60s in June,from Wildwood-a bourbon burst only a little less flamey than the one in the vid.Plays" like buttah",sounds great,and does the job right onstage.We could nitpick about the choice of finishes,but overall Gibson has knocked it out of the park.

I love the 60's gibson the trouble for me to buy one of those is the cost, here in Mexico the stock was so limited ( you practically have to pre-order one whit months of anticipation before the arriving of the little number of guitars who came to mexico, and pay and absurd amount to ensure your guitar ) ... And they're Impossible expensive and the used ones just are so requested... So i never found one when i want ... Btw i love your channel i'm a fan greatings from México ...

Thanks for another fantastic review.... I bought a 2020 60’s standard and it’s a beast. I own a studio and play professionally so we have 12 Gibson’s for our clients choice. We have the unburst and it’s the best Les Paul we have ..especially the fretwork is smooth. The bursts are loud and proud. We usually have to recut the nut and setup the LP we have in the past. The 20 was ready to play out of the case. I’m a huge Gibson fan....it’s American Icon and I hope they continue making fine instruments. Part of the charm of a Gibson is the feel of a handmade instrument made in the USA We are so worried about about little imperfections we forget that it’s the sound we’re seeking. I could care less if my guitar has a scratch of a ding somewhere...it’s the sound and the feel I get when I pick up that iconic instrument like so many great musicians have done in the past and hit that chord and say....wow that’s worth the price of admission.

Fantastic review, I was a bit surprised that after so many years of making guitars Gibson could have any guitar leaving the factory with so many defects, Great channel keep up the good work greetings Edward

I agree, they are headed in the right direction, for sure need to keep focused on the QC

What makes that guitar is the top. Nice and period correct. No seams 1/3 down the top with different pieces cobbled together. and a really nice finish job. Work on the quality and they may have a winner at a nice price right in between a PRS CE and the higher priced McCarty. The McCarty will be about a grand higher and will be flawless but may sway people who put less emphasis on super killer tops and will assume a smaller hit in quality. We may have a horse race here.. The question will come down to dealer acceptance.

Oh wow ! This is a beautiful Les Paul standard. I'm itching to see you review a P90 Gold top !! .. I bought an '05 50's neck in '08 as an ex display model, I love it , and I thought it a great shame they stopped those models ...these new ones are giving me serious GAS , thanks Austin ! 😁

I own 2 of these 60s Les Paul's. Both of them are beautiful. Both of them feel great and sound great through my Blackstar HT-20. I also bought 2 of the 50s Les Paul standards. Again - great guitars. I won't play any other brand. I've been playing since 1978.

I absolutely love this guy! He has the most in depth reviews, which, if you're going to drop thousands of dollars on a guitar, it's highly valuable! I totally trust his assessments, and will search out his reviews on anything I want to acquire.

So I just picked up a 2019 with a 50's neck. Was thinking of this after I got it so I had to back and leave a comment. I've always wanted a Paul but could never justify getting one due to how the qc had been. Well the 2019......its AWESOME!!!! No issues that I can find other than having to adjust the intonation but I'm sure that had to do with shipping, climates, and probably being played on in the store some before I got it. Couldn't have been there that long though born date was 7/23/19. All in all a great guitar and I am very happy!

It's pretty ridiculous, claiming @6:55 that 'post studs' reduce string vibration transfer, while in Gibson's literature of the 70s it clearly states that the post-studs were added to increase sustain. Most telling, is that nobody cares enough to do a double-blind A/B test and settle the matter - they'd rather $pend their time on fetishist woo-woo "debates".

I purchased a 2020 1st batch(0) 77th made Unburst finish and even though the description calls for AA Maple top mine is defintlty a AAA..It looks like a hologram of flames as you walk past it.Gibson must have watched your video because 9 months later when I bought mine I could not find anything,not a blemish,Nada...Best purchase I have ever made...

I’ve had one of these for a few months now and I’m pretty pleased with it. Strangely, mine has the cream colored plastic jack plate. The tooling marks on mine aren’t quite as bad on the fingerboard but the binding is a little sloppy. Mine also doesn’t have that gap between the nut and fingerboard. The bushings under the bridge make it impossible to lower the action to my liking, although I suspect a truss rod adjustment is in order soon. Anyway, thanks for the informative video!

The tones with the solid body are throw back and pungent. On mine, the QC is amazing. That might be because I live in Chicago and drove the salesman crazy. 🤔
