Single cut electric guitar
The Gibson Les Paul Custom is a legend in the world of electric guitars, renowned for its rich tones and iconic design. The Custom Shop Limited Edition LE 1968 Les Paul Custom Reissue (LPC6826LE23257) carries on this tradition with carefully selected features.
Overview
Introduced in 1953 and continuously refined, the Gibson Les Paul Custom set itself apart in 1957 with the addition of Seth Lover’s famous P.A.F. humbucking pickups. Starting in 1968, the Les Paul returned to its original form, marking the Custom’s comeback on the music scene.
A tribute to vintage design with modern features
This reimagining of the Les Paul Custom features a two-tone VOS finish (Ebony Top / Antique Gold Back) and ’68 Custom Humbucker pickups that accurately reproduce the signature tones of the late 1960s. Here are the highlights of this guitar:
- High-precision construction: dimensions laser-scanned from vintage models.
- Premium materials: solid mahogany body and neck, solid ebony fingerboard.
- Authentic tones: '68 Custom Humbucker pickups delivering crisp highs and defined lows.
- Comfortable neck profile: Authentic ’68 Medium C for optimal playability.
- Hot Hide Glue: used since 2014, it allows for easy maintenance and repairs while preserving the authenticity of vintage instruments.
