Gibson Theodore Standard - Vintage Cherry
If you love the tried-and-true Gibson tone of a mahogany body guitar with Gibson's beloved Classic 57 humbuckers, but want to stand out from the crown of Les Paullers and SGers, then this is the perfect guitar for you!
Designed by then Gibson president Theodore "Ted" McCarty and only previously available as a limited edition Custom Shop model, the Gibson Theodore Standard is based on drawings and notes created by Ted McCarty in 1957. Its features include a mahogany body, scimitar headstock with Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners, and double Florentine cutaways that provide unimpeded access to all 22 frets on the rosewood-capped, SlimTaper mahogany neck.
The balanced construction is exceptionally comfortable, and the powerful 57 Classic and 57 Classic Plus humbucker pickups produce effortless sustain and a rich diversity of tones. It is available in Antique Natural, Vintage Cherry, and Ebony. A hardshell case is also included.
