A Fresh Look for the Classic Les Paul Custom
Gibson Custom took a different approach to this Les Paul Custom Maduro Brown Edition, but the feel and tone is classic Les Paul all the way. Due to disruptions in the supply of ebony, the traditional fingerboard material for Les Paul Customs, this Les Paul Custom Maduro Brown Edition sports a layered rosewood fingerboard. Two thin rosewood pieces are layered together with alternating grain directions, resulting in an incredibly rigid marriage of the two pieces. It's a beautiful complement to the rich Maduro Brown finish, inspired by the color of Maduro broadleaf tobacco. It's a distinctive look to go with the distinctive LP tone you'll get from the 498T/490R humbucking pickups. If you're looking for the epitome of Gibson Custom craftsmanship with a non-standard look, you'll love the Les Paul Custom Maduro Brown Edition.

Tradition dictates that the Les Paul Custom is bestowed with a mahogany body, mahogany neck, and an ebony fingerboard. Due to global supply interruptions, the LP Custom Maduro Brown Edition sports an innovative layered rosewood fingerboard. Created from two thin slabs of rosewood, joined with alternating grain directions, this fingerboard is ultra-rigid and complements the look of the Maduro Brown finish.
