Description
The look and tone of the original Les Paul Special was intended to be pure and accessible, without compromising the high craft and performance standards of the Gibson name.
This Limited Run of Maple Top Les Paul Special guitars adds a new depth of character to the Special's voice with a quality 2-piece maple top.
The Special's look gets a subtle upgrade as well through the addition of a faux tortoise pick guard and deep, dark cherry finish.
In the late 1970s, the Custom Van craze defined automotive culture in the same way the Gibson Les Paul Custom defined the sound of rock music.
And both the Street Vans and the Les Pauls of the 1970s have seen a resurgence in popularity over the past few years, prompting this fun mash-up -- the Les Paul Custom "Boogie Van." Each guitar features unique three-tone paint schemes, custom chrome hardware, a 1970s-style three piece maple neck, underwound Super '74 humbuckers, and a hot-stamped truss rod cover with "Boogie Van" artwork.
