What we say:

At A Glance

This Gibson Custom Shop flagship model dates all the way back to 1954. The Custom was design by Les Paul to be the "tuxedo" version of the classic. It looks every bit as good now as it did then but has been given some player friendly upgrades along the way. Kitted out with all you need to play and sound at your best, this is still one of the all-time standout instruments. This model has found its way into a number of styles; from jazz to metal, this is a guitar that belongs wherever you want it to.

Features We Love:

The "Tuxedo"

Everything about this guitar just oozes class and sophistication. The iconic headstock inlay, intricate binding, the block inlays on the ebony fingerboard... It is all there in full style. The gold hardware is the icing on the cake and completes the classic look that we all know and love.

Pickups

The 490/498 set pack all you need under the hood for this guitar to sound as good as it looks. Taking this guitar all the way from smooth jazz leads to biting rock riffs, they are incredibly versatile and have a great level of clarity. If you are looking for a guitar that can do it all then look no further!

Solid Woods

The neck is made from solid mahogany and the fingerboard is solid ebony - this means unbelievable amounts of sustain! Partner this with the 1 piece mahogany body and 2 piece maple top and your notes will sing for a very long time!

Highlights:

  • The flagship Custom "Tuxedo" model
  • Will be at home in any style of music
  • Gibson Custom Shop level of quality

John D. - 2/12/2023

only had this just over a month and not been able to play it as much as i would have liked,but WOW what a guitar,sustain a plenty,plays like butter,very versatile , it can go from rip roaring rock/metal to clean jazz like tones and everything in between with ease,looks absolutely stunning in the ebony, a quality instrument. not a cheap guitar by any means but when you hold/play one then you can see/feel and hear the quality then you know you are purchasing something special. if any of you are thinking of buying one of these guitars then take my advice,go and try one out,then buy one,treat yourself,you wont regret it
