Overview

A beautiful guitar in looks and tone.

The two-pickup Les Paul Special was introduced in 1955 as an intermediate model, positioned between the low-cost Les Paul Junior and the Les paul Model. Originally available only in a single cutaway, TV-style limed mahogany finish, the Special was changed in 1959 to a double cutaway model and a cherry red finish was added to the mix. The Double-Cut is now part of Gibson's Vintage Original Spec series - the next step in the journey toward perfection.
