Gibson Les Paul Parlor

The Gibson Les Paul Parlor Acoustic models feature a smaller-sized body reminiscent of a scaled-down SJ-200. Their body is made of solid mahogany, while scalloped X bracing supports the selected AAA maple top. This combination ensures a warmer, sustained sound while offering great looks.

The guitar’s mahogany neck offers great comfort with its Advanced Response profile. The bound rosewood fretboard with a 12″ radius, 19 frets, and pearloid trapeze inlays enhance the Les Paul Parlor guitar’s elegance and style. Of course, this guitar is also traditionally coated with nitrocellulose lacquer.

Inspired from Les Paul

Visually, the Gibson Les Paul Parlor Acoustic impresses with its single-layer cream-colored pickguard, inspired by traditional Les Paul Standard electric guitars, and the stylish pearl Gibson logo. The headstock also features the golden Les Paul model lettering, which emphasizes the connection to the brand’s legendary electric guitars.

No expense was spared on the electronics, either. The Les Paul Parlor Acoustic features an L.R. Baggs VTC +4 piezo pickup and an active preamp—a real live guitar, so to speak. With their Grover Rotomatic tuners, a TUSQ nut, and a rosewood bridge, these models will stay in tune and sound great for a long time.

Price and availability

The Gibson Les Paul Parlor Acoustic comes in Vintage Cherry Sunburst or Vintage Sunburst finishes. The price of €3,999 is standard for an instrument of this quality. Both models are available now here at Thomann*. A case is included.
