Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Vintage Bourbon Burst Les Paul Standard '50s Double Trouble is a 500-per-finish run built around a solid, non-weight-relieved mahogany body and AA figured maple top. Its gloss nitro finish is hand sprayed, while the rounded '50s Vintage mahogany neck and 22-fret rosewood fingerboard establish the playing layout. Burstbucker 1 and 2 humbuckers, with Double Classic White bobbins, cover the neck and bridge positions. Separate volume and tone controls for each pickup, handwired with Orange Drop capacitors, allow deliberate pickup balancing during recorded parts or live set changes.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Players who prefer a rounded '50s Vintage mahogany neck and a rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Players specifically seeking a SlimTaper neck; this guitar uses a rounded '50s Vintage profile.
  • Players seeking a weight-relieved body; its solid mahogany body is non-weight-relieved.
