The 1969 Les Paul that introduced mini humbuckers into the mix.
First released in 1969, the Gibson Les Paul Deluxe saw the introduction of the mini humbucker to the Les Paul lineup. Mini humbuckers retain the hum-free performance of their full-sized cousins but with a clearer and brighter tonality. This reimagined version has features inspired by those early models from the 1970s, with a mahogany body, bound maple top and bound mahogany neck. Additionally, the Les Paul Deluxe '70s includes vintage-style Keystone tuners, a Graph Tech nut and a traditional Les Paul control layout with two Volume and two Tone controls wired with Orange Drop capacitors.
