From Our Research Team:

Limited Edition Les Paul Custom!

The Gibson Les Paul Custom is equal parts elegance and brute strength. From Al Di Meola to Slash, the Les Paul has defined fat, snarling tone. The world-class luthiers at Gibson Custom gave this iconic solidbody electric guitar a luscious carved maple figured top and armed it with a pair of humbuckers that go from mellow to sonic annihilation in a heartbeat. This majestic beast is ultra-responsive to your touch, and when you really want to tear it up, the lightning-fast neck and precision fretwork on the Gibson Les Paul Custom give you the action you need.

Gibson Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Breathtaking carved figured maple top, with a limited edition finish
  • The Dynamic Duo: 498T and 490R humbuckers
  • Nitrocellulose lacquer finish, for the look and feel of a lightly aged classic

Breathtaking carved figured maple top, with a limited edition finish
The Les Paul Custom is stunning. Period. Gibson has carefully chosen the carved figured maple top and finished it with a jaw-dropping nitro finish. Gold hardware gives the Les Paul Custom the perfect finishing touch. Only 25 of these superb guitars will be made with this special Orange Widow finish - so better call your Sales Engineer and reserve yours now!

The Dynamic Duo: 498T and 490R humbuckers
You want fat, snarling tone? The Gibson Les Paul Custom serves it up big time, thanks to 498T and 490R humbucking pickups. But this axe is perfect for any style of music. Whether you're delivering your message with mellow chorused jazz tones - or a blistering liquid inferno - the Les Paul Custom rewards your touch with world-class responsiveness. This impeccable guitar does it all.

Nitrocellulose lacquer finish, for the look and feel of a lightly aged classic
This Gibson Les Paul Custom wears a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Nitro finishes - standard back in the day - are significantly thinner than today's polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to "breathe." Nitro finishes not only look vintage-y wonderful; they also enhance the instrument's tonal qualities. This guitar has the look and feel of a gently aged classic.

Gibson Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar Features:
  • LP Custom: elegance, playability, and brute strength
