Contact us to purchase.
The Les Paul™ Music City Special – 50th Anniversary is an updated, modern twist on two
historical Gibson models, taking much of its inspiration from the 70s-era Marauder that
was designed by Bill Lawrence, with a touch of the Music City Jr. in its DNA. Over the
years, the Marauder has been used by artists from Adam Jones to Paul Stanley. This
unique commemorative model pays tribute to the early days of Gibson’s Nashville
production and celebrates Gibson’s 50 years of producing world-class guitars in Music
City while delivering outstanding value to modern players. The lightweight, contoured
body is solid poplar. The maple neck has a fast-playing and comfortable SlimTaper™
profile and is equipped with a striped ebony fretboard that is adorned with acrylic dot
inlays and outfitted with 22 medium jumbo frets. The 12” fretboard radius makes
first-position chords and string bends higher up the fretboard equally effortless. The
hardware is chrome-plated, including the Nashville Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, aluminum Stop
Bar tailpiece Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners, and output jack plate cover. A black 5-ply
pickguard holds two Gibson 70s Tribute humbucker™ pickups, which are wired to an
intuiti
ve and comfortable control layout consisting of master volume and master tone
controls with black Top Hat knobs and a three-way pickup selector toggle switch. A
premium soft shell case is included to keep the Les Paul Music City Special - 50th
Anniversary safe when stored or in transport. The Les Paul Music City Special - 50th
Anniversary is available in Ebony, Wine Red, and Tobacco Burst gloss nitrocellulose
lacquer finishes, and each has a commemorative 50th Anniversary truss rod cover. The
Les Paul Music City Special - 50th Anniversary model is limited to only 500 instruments in
each of the three colors, so make sure you get your favorite while you still can!
