The truss rod cover is inscribed with “Heritage Series Standard 80”. Colors were dark cherry sunburst or honeyburst. The example in this article has a very deep flame. There are a few examples with one piece necks and ebony fretboards, which indicates that Elite necks were used during parts shortages. Some came with rather plain tops and others have moderate flame. The Heritage Series Standard 80 has a three piece neck and rosewood fretboard. The truss rod covers are inscribed with the model names.ġ. The pickups are one double white and one zebra under the covers. Tim Shaw of Gibson at the time designed reissue PAFs for them which sound very good and have come to be known as "Shaw PAFs" in the collector community. While not as close in terms of vintage specifications to the Guitar Trader and Leo's LP models, they are well regarded guitars by many players and collectors and have excellent fit, finish, tone, and playability. The necks on these guitars are of medium thickness. The Gibson logo on the headstock has a closed “b” and “o” and a dot over the “i”. The back plates for the control cavity and switch are brown. They are generally on the heavy side (high 9's to high 10 lbs.), have the thin binding in cutaway, small black side dot markers, and a Nashville bridge. There does not appear to be any pattern to the second four digit number – it was used for marketing reasons to distinguish these guitars as limited editions by Bruce Bolen, then head of R&D.

These LPs have a unique sharp and wide cutaway at the horn, Grover kidney tuners, and an eight digit serial number with four digit second number beneath it. With the exception of a few Kalamazoo-built prototypes or “one offs” in circulation, all Heritage 80's were made in the Nashville plant between 19. I'm not sure about this, but I believe about 2000 Standards were made. The 4 digit number is the series sequence number (mine is 1959!). I really wasn't too fond of mine, and replaced them with Duncan 59's,and then with LPF forum member Tim Shaw's Timbuckers, and I'm fairly certain they'll stay in the guitar until I take the dirt nap.ĥ. The pickups wer designed by Mike Shaw, head of Gibson's R&D department at that time. Supposedly the H80 Standards have Brazilian rosewood boards).Ĥ. Originals have 1 piece necks (as do the Heritage 80 Elites, but those also have ebony fretboards. In reality, I've seen them all across the board.ģ. The Standards came in two "official" colors: Cherrt burst and Tobacco Burst. From what I've read, they were Gibson's first serious attempt at replicating the late 50's holy grails.Ģ. Thanks for all your help guys!!!!Ĭlick to expand.Congrats! H80's are great guitars, and IMO one of the better values in the LP world. Great guitar and I paid what I believe to be a good price for it. Sorry for all the questions but I want to know all I can about this LP. Also, there is a 4 digit number under the "Made In USA" stamp. That sound like the right way to date it? I was told it was an '81. 1st and 5th numbers would say it's a 1980. It has a regular serial number on the top of the headstock. Are there any telltale markings on the back of the pickup that would prove they are original?ĥ. Are the 3 piece necks accurate to the early ones?Ĥ. Salesman refered to it as a "Tea-Burst".ģ. What "color's" did they come in? Mine is a dark brown outside to a medium brown inside. Were these the first RI's made by Gibson? The salesman told me this.Ģ. (I did a search here and only found 1 thread) Nice guitar with good weight. I found yesterday, and bought, A Gibson Les Paul Heritage 80. Hello All! A few questions for the enlightened.
