Overview

An update to one of the most versatile electric guitars of all time.

The Gibson Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar is a special limited-run model from the Gibson Custom Shop. With many of the Classic Black Beauty guitar appointments, such as the glossy black finish, gold hardware, multi-ply binding, and block pearl fingerboard inlays on an ebony fretboard, it has the visual appeal that has attracted guitarists for decades.

The Gibson Les Paul Custom also features updated electronics, sporting 3 BurstBucker pickups for an amazing array of tonal possibilities. In the neck position is a medium output Burstbucker 1 for a sweet vintage sound. In the middle and bridge positions are BurstBucker 2 pickups, which have a slightly hotter output for that extra bite you need to really cut through the mix. The Gibson LP Custom Guitar has all the meticulous handwork you're used to from the Gibson Custom Shop.

Pioneered and developed with the assistance of legendary jazz-pop guitarist Les Paul”one of the world's greatest musical and technological pioneers”the Gibson Les Paul Guitar has become the standard by which all electric guitars are judged. With fat, rich tone and incredible sustain, the Les Paul lends itself to every style and generation of music. From the sweetest jazz to the heaviest rock and metal, the Les Paul guitar can do it all. It is one of the most powerful and versatile guitars of all time.
