"Sustain for Days:" The new "2015" Joe Bonamassa Les Paul Standard w/Bigsby® Outfit was designed in close cooperation with Joe and includes many of his favorite design details drawn from his collection of vintage Les Paul Standards--designed by Mr. Les Paul himself to "sustain for days." The "2015" has a Mahogany body with the same classic "Les Paul" profile used on all Les Pauls since they were first produced at the Gibson/Epiphone factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The top has a Carved Maple Cap and is finished in Inverness Green at Joe's request. The traditional Mahogany neck has a rounded D-profile with a "1959" shape modeled after Joe's favorite '59 Les Paul Standard and is deep-set into the body and hand-glued. The neck has a 12" radius with a Rosewood fingerboard with "Trapezoid" inlays, a standard 24.75" scale length, 22 medium jumbo frets, and a standard 1 11/16 nut. The truss rod cover has the now familiar Les Paul "bell-shape" with "Bonamassa" engraved in capitol letters and the trademark "Les Paul" signature in gold on the headstock.
