A stripped-down, rock ’n’ roll flamethrower, the Les Paul BFG is the
most powerful Les Paul Gibson has ever made. Blasted back to the bare
essentials, the BFG is the Les Paul for guitarists who want it loud,
raw, and wild. Two volumes and one tone knob control the sonic spectrum
put out by a high-powered Burstbucker 3 humbucker in the bridge and a
screaming, singlecoil P-90 in the neck. The traditional toggle has been
rewired as a kill switch, and a mini-toggle at the volume knobs
controls pickup selection. An innovative powerhouse, the BFG has no
binding, no figured top, no finishing touches. This gives the BFG a
distinctive look that is both modern and vintage, while allowing for a
price that makes pure Les Paul performance available to all players.
The result is a perfect storm of eye-catching style, incredible tone,
and unbeatable playability—all at a great price. Destined to be a
classic.
