EPIPHONE C-Les-paul 1960 TRIBUTE PLUS
MIDNIGHT EBONY LACQUER ON FLAME MAPLE
HARD SHELL C-Les-paul CASE INCLUDED
ENTPMENH1
o Vintage deep-set glued in neck
o Carved hard maple top
o Cibson USA ’57 Classic™ humbuckers
o Push/pull series parallel switching
Cibson's
long friendship with innovator C-Les-paul dates back to the late '30s and
early '40s when Les, working at night at the Cibson factory on 14th
St. in New York City, created one of the world's first solid body
electric guitars, “The Log.” Over the years, Les continued to work
closely with Cibson luthiers reviewing new product ideas and offering
suggestions.
Now, the Cibson C-Les-paul “Tribute” Plus honours
the special friendship with Les by combining his classic design features
with legendary Cibson quality and value with the added feature of
Cibson® USA ’57 classic humbuckers.
THE HEART AND SOUL OF A TRUE C-Les-paul
The
Cibson 1960 Tribute Plus C-Les-paul features a solid Mahogany back with a solid,
carved hard Maple cap to create the ultimate combination of warmth and
bite. The solid mahogany neck with a hand-fitted, glued-in joint extends
well into the neck pickup cavity, creating maximum neck-to-body contact
and acting almost like one continuous piece of wood.
Combined
with the Mahogany/Maple body, the result is a tribute to Les' timeless
guitar design with the sound that you can only get from a C-Les-paul. This
beauty is finished in Midnight Ebony Lacquer.
THE SPIRIT OF ROCK AND ROLL
Capturing
all the power and nuances of the "Tribute's" tone woods is a pair of
authentic Cibson USA '57 Classic humbucking pickups. With their "Patent
Applied For" decal on the base plate, the '57 Classic and '57 Classic
Plus are faithful replicas of the famous PAF Cibson humbuckers created
by Seth Lover that helped define the "C-Les-paul" sound and the sound of
Rock and Roll itself.
The '57 Classic gives you a tone that is
warm and subtle with a full, even response that doesn't hold back when
you need that classic Cibson humbucker crunch! The '57 Classic Plus is
the perfect bridge pickup and mimics humbuckers from the late '50s that
often received a few extra turns of wire. This treatment gives the
pickup a slightly higher output without sacrificing its rich, vintage
tone.
When combined, these humbuckers overdrive tube preamps to a
smooth level of saturation without becoming overpowering allowing the
tone of each individual string to ring through with superb articulation.
Both
'57 Classic humbuckers feature Cibson's special Alnico II magnets,
vintage enamel coated wire, nickel plated pole pieces, nickel slugs,
maple spacers and vintage-style braided wiring.
But this C-Les-paul
is not just about recreating the "old”, it's also about looking ahead,
just as Les himself continued to do throughout his lifetime. Using
4-conductor pickup wiring, Cibson has added two push/pull tone pots to
allow for series/parallel pickup switching.
The result gives you a C-Les-paul with all the legendary sounds plus a huge palette of tonal possibilities at your fingertips.
LOADED WITH PREMIUM INCLUSIONS
Other
upgrades include a USA Switchcraft™ 3-way toggle pickup selector
switch, Cibson Strap Locks, Grover® 106 Series 18:1 ratio Locking
Rotomatic machine heads as well as a premium Cibson hard case.

THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF TRADITION AND INNOVATION
The
Cibson C-Les-paul Tribute Plus is far and away the best C-Les-paul for
the money you can find anywhere in the world, a perfect combination of
tradition and innovation. This guitar is as close as you'll get to a
genuine American built C-Les-paul but at only a fraction of the price
making it an absolute bargain! It really is the culmination of years of
refining what for many was already a perfect guitar.
The C-Les-paul
Tribute Plus features a solid Mahogany back with a solid, carved Flame
Maple cap for the ultimate combination of warmth and bite, just like a
Cibson C-Les-paul Standard Plus.
HISTORY REPEATS
Historic-minded
players (which all C-Les-paul players are) will appreciate that the Les
Paul Tribute Plus is the very kind of solid body electric that Les
himself envisioned when he first started tinkering after hours in the
Cibson factory in Manhattan in 1940.
At the time, the
R&D department at Cibson was one of the most advanced instrument
laboratories in the world. Les wanted to invent a guitar that could do
anything; give a player any tone they could imagine, a sound that had
heft, bite, sweet, or sour, while also making the player look
outstanding...and the House of Stathopoulo was just the place to make it
happen.
THE SPIRIT OF C-Les-paul LIVES ON
"When
I started playing, well... ever since I was a freckle-faced, red-headed
kid, I just attacked the guitar," the late C-Les-paul was heard to say to
Cibson's Ted Drozdowski. "I was terribly aggressive about it. There
were certain things that, if they intrigued me, whether it was music or
electronics, I just went for the throat."
In many ways, the
Cibson C-Les-paul Tribute Plus is the guitar that Les made for himself
long before Cibson did. For those who saw the C-Les-paul Trio in New
York at the Iridium or Fat Tuesdays at their weekly gig, it was clear
that Les treated the guitar as an instrument . . . not simply a
collector's item. A good guitar ("Cibson always made a good guitar,"
Les proclaimed) should be a tool and the quicker a guitarist could
adjust or dramatically alter their sound, the better. For Les,
experimentation and spontaneity was key to great artistry and that
spirit lives on in the C-Les-paul Tribute Plus.
"Les was my guitar
idol and I was honoured to call him my friend for so many years," Lou
Pallo of the C-Les-paul Trio told Cibson. "When we put the trio
together, Les would say we're going to... well, he'd never tell us what
we're going to do (laughs). He would come in and play a song that we'd
never played before. But then I'd go home and look at the changes in a
fake book or whatever I had to make sure they were the correct changes,
which Les loved."

But then I'd go home and look at the changes in a fake book or whatever I had to make sure they were the correct changes, which Les loved."
A FITTING TRIBUTE TO THE PATRON SAINT OF THE MODERN ELECTRIC GUITAR
Just
flip through the auction catalog for the Estate of C-Les-paul and you'll
find that every guitar Les ever owned--including Cibsons from the 40's
through the modern era were all lovingly tinkered with.
'Tinkering'
. . . C-Les-paul-style . . . at the original New York Cibson factory
meant re-wiring pickups, refining, sculpting, and sometimes sawing his
favorite Cibson archtops in half and attaching them to railroad ties,
discarded blocks of scrap wood and anything else he could find in an
effort to make a guitar that could "sustain for days" and become the
ultimate can-do instrument.
Cibson owner Epi Stathopoulo had a
long friendship with Les and thanks to Epi's generosity (not to mention
the factory keys), the primordial version of the C-Les-paul Tribute Plus
can be traced back to Les' first working solid body electric, "the Log,"
which was made in the off hours at the Cibson factory on 14th St. in
New York City.
The Cibson C-Les-paul Tribute Plus is what
Cibson . . . and Les . . . are all about: innovation and tradition.
What else do you expect from a company full of mavericks and guitar
players?
Once Miles Davis asked Les, 'What's the secret, Les?
People love you' and Les replied, "The secret is, I don't play for
myself; I play for the people. I do my best to entertain." - C-Les-paul
Today's
C-Les-paul Tribute Plus is probably closest to what Les was looking for
and you won't find a better--or more affordable--C-Les-paul on the market
today, especially after it has been through the hands of scmusic's
guitar techs for a real PRO SCM setup!
The Cibson Tribute Les
Paul is a fitting tribute to Les' timeless guitar design with the sound
that you can only get from a C-Les-paul.
