The Irresistible Les Paul Custom Limited

Looking for a solidbody electric guitar with serious sonic punch and fluid playability? We've got your axe: the Les Paul Custom Limited. Gibson's Custom Shop luthiers selected premium mahogany for the body, topped it with jaw-dropping figured maple, then spec'd a pair of premium humbuckers - a classic recipe for rich, articulate tone that'll let you slice right through the mix. Feel that buttery Richlite fretboard under your fingers. Dime your amp. Rip out a lightning-fast run. That's what we're talking about. The Gibson Les Paul Custom Limited. You've arrived.

Gibson Custom Les Paul Custom Limited at a Glance:
  • Dual humbuckers deliver a universe of tone
  • Nitro finish, for the look and feel of a classic
  • You can't go wrong with this gorgeous axe
Dual humbuckers deliver a universe of tone

It just wouldn't be a Les Paul without humbuckers, and this Les Paul Custom Limited solidbody electric guitar features premium tone, thanks of Gibson's 496R and 498T pickups. Naturally, these hot humbuckers really shine when pumping out the legendary fat, snarling tone that is the Les Paul's stock in trade. The pups are delightfully responsive, though - just roll back the volume, and they clean up beautifully. Sweetwater guitarists just love this pickup combo, and so will you.

Nitro finish, for the look and feel of a classic

The Gibson Les Paul Custom Limited 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 classic axe - one that will only improve with age.

You can't go wrong with this gorgeous axe

The rich and smoky sound of the Les Paul has defined rock for decades. If you long for the epic sound of classic humbuckers and resonant mahogany, you just can't beat the Les Paul Custom Limited. This iconic solidbody electric guitar defines the Gibson legacy as much as it defines the essence of modern rock and fusion. So why settle for less? If you want a true modern classic, pick up a Gibson Les Paul Custom Limited.

Gibson Custom Les Paul Custom Limited Features:
  • An iconic solidbody electric from one of the world's renowned guitar makers
  • Mahogany body with carved figured maple top: amazing visuals and killer sustain
  • Gibson 490R and 498T Alnico humbuckers deliver a massive range of fat, snarling tone
