Guitar Additional Info


Description
With highly-flamed maple tops and wild tinted-binding color options, the Les Paul Custom Figured Top Widow series adds another level of boldness to the Les Paul Custom guitar.

The balanced, powerful tone of a matched set of 490R/498T humbucking pickups retain the voice that's earned the Les Paul Custom its reputation as a stage and recording legend, while the wild colors and tinted multi-layer binding bring a new and modern appeal to a classic design.
Gibson Custom Shop has created small batches of sparkle-finish guitars in the past, but never before have the finishes so perfectly matched the inlay colors like in this limited-edition Les Paul Custom Abalone Sparkle series.

All the gleaming, vibrant colors of Abalone come alive through these five coordinated metal flake finishes.

Under the hood, all the classic Les Paul tone and Custom Shop construction you expect is present, making it every bit the pro-level instrument as it is a museum-caliber statement piece.
