SHOP ALL GIBSON CUSTOM SELECT
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.
As the flagship model from Gibson Custom, the Les Paul™ Custom lives up to the high standards set by its 1950s archetype while evolving to a level of tone and performance more suited to today's musical demands. This one upgrades the normal Les Paul Custom's "tuxedo" appointments with a 1-piece 5A quilt maple top that must be seen in person to fully appreciate. Beneath the stunning exterior lies the crisp, edgy voice of a matched 490R/498T humbucker™ set, a solid dark ebony fingerboard on the 50s Rounded Medium C profile mahogany neck, and a long neck tenon for maximum sustain. It sounds as good as it looks, and it looks as good as it sounds!
