Used Gibson Les Paul Standard Double Cutaway Electric Guitar

This Gibson Les Paul Standard Double Cutaway is a killer USA-made instrument that blends classic Les Paul tone with a more modern double-cut design and improved upper fret access. Finished in a transparent cherry red gloss that shows off the flamed maple top beautifully, this guitar delivers the rich sustain and punch you expect from a Les Paul while feeling lighter and more ergonomic than a traditional single cut model.

The carved flame maple top paired with the mahogany body gives this guitar a warm, resonant tone with excellent sustain and clarity. Dual humbuckers provide everything from smooth cleans to thick rock crunch and singing lead tones. The slim double-cut body design makes this a fantastic player for lead guitarists wanting easier access to the upper frets without sacrificing classic Gibson feel and tone.

This example appears to be a 2002 Gibson Les Paul Standard Double Cutaway finished in Cherry Transparent Red with gold hardware, trapezoid inlays, bound rosewood fretboard, and factory Grover tuners. Serial number dating and “Made in USA” stamp line up with early 2000s production.
