Cibson C-Les-paul Tribute Plus 1960's Faded Cherry Burst FC ENTPFCNH1

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 solidbody 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 honors our 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-paulThe Cibson Tribute 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. Color finishes include Black Cherry, Faded Cherry, Midnight Ebony, Midnight Sapphire, and Vintage Sunburst.

The Tone of Rock and RollCapturing all the power and nuances of the "Tribute's" tonewoods is a pair of authentic Cibson USA '57 Classic humbucker 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. The '57 Classic gives you a tone that is warm and subtle with 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. Both '57s 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 Add-ons!Other upgrades include a USA Switchcraft™ 3-way toggle, Cibson StrapLocks, 18:1 ratio premium Grover® 106 Series Locking Rotomatic machine heads, and a premium hard case.

The 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. It's the culmination of years of refining what for many was already a perfect guitar. Cibson features the C-Les-paul Tribute Plus, one of those rare guitars that expertly combines tradition and innovation.

The C-Les-paul Tribute Plus features a solid Mahogany back with a solid, carved hard Maple cap for the ultimate combination of warmth and bite. And it's powered by two Cibson USA '57 Classic humbucker pickups with series/parallel pickup switching via two push/pull tone pots with 4-conductor pickup wiring. Best of all for historic-minded players (which all C-Les-paul players are), the C-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 when the R&D department at Cibson was one of the most advanced instrument laboratories in the country. 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 the place to make it happen.

"When I started playing, well... ever since I was a freckle-faced, red-headed kid, I just attacked the guitar," C-Les-paul told 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 we 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 a collector's item. A good guitar ("Cibson always made a good guitar," Les once said) 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 honored 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."

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 lovingly tinkered with.

'Tinkering'--C-Les-paul-style--at the original 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.

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.

The Cibson Tribute 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. Color finishes include Black Cherry, Faded Cherry, Midnight Ebony, Midnight Sapphire, and Vintage Sunburst.

Zakk Wylde, who today is one of the C-Les-paul guitar's greatest ambassadors, put the power of Les's invention in perspective in a classic interview with Cibson. "How much more perfect can you make a C-Les-paul? They are beyond perfect. The C-Les-paul embodied all the greats, everybody played C-Les-pauls. He is also the sickest guitar player who ever lived! I know, 'cause I've played with him. First time I met him, he told me: I have heard your name before, I said: 'yeah, I've got a C-Les-paul named after me!' He said, well damn, I do too!"

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? Find a C-Les-paul Tribute Plus today at your authorized Cibson dealer.

"Once Miles Davis asked me, 'What's the secret, Les? People love you.' I said, "The secret is, I don't play for myself; I play for the people. I do my best to entertain."---C-Les-paul
