PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
- Timeless craftsmanship and design The Gibson Custom Les Paul Custom is a true masterpiece built to the highest standards of craftsmanship. Every detail from its Alpine White finish to the multi-ply binding reflects the legacy of the Les Paul Custom as a refined and elegant instrument. Introduced as the "tuxedo" version of the Les Paul in the 1950s this model has remained an icon of style and sophistication. The combination of a solid mahogany body and a two-piece maple top not only provides a striking visual contrast but also enhances the tonal character offering a perfect balance of warmth and clarity. Unmatched sustain and resonance One of the standout features of the Les Paul Custom is its ability to produce long-lasting sustain and rich resonance. This is achieved through a combination of high-quality tonewoods and a long tenon neck joint which ensures a seamless transfer of vibrations between the neck and body. The solid mahogany construction delivers deep full-bodied tones while the maple top adds definition and bite to the sound. From smooth jazz to high-gain rock every note sings with clarity and sustain that lasts far beyond the moment of attack. Powerful and versatile pickups Equipped with a Gibson 490R humbucker in the neck position and a 498T humbucker at the bridge the Les Paul Custom offers a wide tonal range suited for multiple styles of music. The 490R delivers warm smooth tones with excellent clarity perfect for expressive leads and chord voicings. The 498T with its higher output adds an aggressive edge that cuts through any mix making it ideal for rock and blues solos. With a combination of these pickups the Les Paul Custom provides both vintage warmth and modern punch giving you the flexibility to shape your tone for any performance or recording session. Premium playability and feel Designed for smooth effortless playing the Les Paul Custom features a solid ebony fingerboard that offers a fast responsive feel under your fingers. The 12-inch radius and medium jumbo frets ensure comfortable bending and precise intonation allowing for expressive lead work and articulate chord voicings. The neck profile is carefully sculpted for a natural grip striking the perfect balance between comfort and control. Combined with the guitar&rsquo
