Our take on the Gibson Les Paul Special Tribute DC

The Les Paul Special Tribute DC is a double-cutaway solidbody with a mahogany body, maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. It carries two P-90 single-coils wired reverse wound/reverse polarity so the middle position cancels hum, plus a 3-way toggle, all mounted on a 5-ply pickguard. A compensated wraparound tailpiece handles intonation and sustain. It suits players who want Junior-style simplicity with a neck pickup and a satin finish, and it sits above the single-pickup Junior in flexibility while staying leaner than a carved-top Standard.

What reviewers say

Owners tend to like the Tribute DC as a light, resonant P-90 guitar with a fast satin neck and good upper-fret access. Common gripes are hum from the single-coil pickups and the limited intonation range of the wraparound bridge.

About the Gibson Les Paul Special Tribute DC

The Gibson Les Paul Special Tribute DC is a double-cut electric guitar. It builds on the Les Paul Junior by adding a rhythm P-90 pickup and a 3-way toggle switch. The styling is vintage.

The body is mahogany. The neck is maple with a rosewood fingerboard. The satin finishes feel comfortable in the hand and give the neck a quick feel.

The two classic P-90 pickups are reverse wound and reverse polarity, so they cancel hum when combined. They are installed with the controls in a top-mount, 5-ply pickguard design. The compensated wraparound tailpiece provides classic tone, performance and sustain.

Questions and answers

How does it differ from the Les Paul Junior?
It adds a neck P-90 and a 3-way toggle to the Junior's single bridge pickup, so you get more tonal options from the same double-cut body.
Do the P-90s cancel hum?
Only in the middle position, where the two pickups are reverse wound/reverse polarity. Each pickup alone hums like any single-coil.
Can I adjust intonation on the wraparound bridge?
The compensated tailpiece is set for a standard string set. It offers far less per-string adjustment than a Tune-o-matic.
What body and neck woods does it use?
A mahogany body with a maple neck and a rosewood fingerboard.
Is it good for beginners?
It is a straightforward two-pickup guitar, but the P-90 hum and fixed bridge suit players who accept vintage-style quirks.
Where is the Gibson Les Paul Special Tribute DC cheapest?
At Fairstore, for $63.00, as of our latest check.
