Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Tobacco Burst Les Paul Standard '50s Figured Top combines an AA figured maple top with a solid mahogany body and a rounded '50s mahogany neck. Its Burstbucker 1 neck humbucker and Burstbucker 2 bridge humbucker feed handwired controls: two volumes, two tones, and a three-way toggle. That layout gives you direct control of each pickup before moving between neck, bridge, and combined settings. An ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, aluminum stopbar, and included hardshell case round out the instrument.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Recording layered guitar parts using independently adjustable neck and bridge humbucker controls.
- Players who prefer a rounded '50s neck and a rosewood fingerboard with 22 frets.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; the specified orientation is right handed.
- Players seeking a single-coil configuration; this model has two passive humbuckers.
