Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson's legacy through accuracy, authenticity and attention to detail.
Custom Shop is proud to present the Les Paul Special Double Cut Figured Top -- a mash up of several circa-1959 vintage Gibson models that looks, feels, and plays like a golden-era classic.
Combining the effortless playability and iconic, thunderous tones of the 1960s Les Paul™ Specials with stunning modern styling and upgraded electronics for a monster sound, this is a very Special guitar right out of the box. The double cutaway and neck pickup position provide the same highly acclaimed access to the '60s SlimTaper™ neck as the original, while the sophisticated embossed maple top, classic Les Paul-inspired wiring and subtly patinated nickel hardware (from the authentic profile pickup covers to the breaker bar and ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge) raise the bar for great style. The brutal and powerful Custombucker pickups deliver the perfect intense and bold sound, completing the whole look of fiery elegance.
