The Classic is a catch-all name and for 2019 swaps its 2018-spec dual P-90s for ’61 Zebras and adds the circuit board previously used on the Standard, along with weight relief. The 2019 Classic is essentially a stripped-down Les Paul before you drop to the Studios and is offered in honeyburst or gold top ... The 2019 models share the same construction : one-piece neck, headstock widening wings and two-piece centre-joined backs. The Classic features a plain top, in maple.
