Classic Les Paul tone meets modern refinement in the Gibson Custom Les Paul Standard, a Custom Shop instrument that blends enhanced comfort, versatile performance and meticulous craftsmanship.

Available in striking Translucent Amber and Translucent Blue finishes, the Gibson Custom Les Paul Standard presents a fresh interpretation of a timeless design for today's players. Weight-Relieved Mahogany Body With AA Figured Maple Top The Les Paul Standard begins with the classic combination of a mahogany body and maple top that has defined the model's sound for decades. The mahogany provides warmth, sustain and a rich midrange foundation, while the AA figured maple top adds clarity, definition and visual appeal. Traditional nine-hole weight relief helps reduce overall weight and improve comfort without sacrificing the authoritative voice players expect from a Les Paul. The result is a guitar that retains the depth and character of the original design while remaining comfortable through long rehearsals, recording sessions and performances. Gibson Burstbucker Pickups for Classic Gibson Tone A matched set of Burstbucker humbuckers gives the Les Paul Standard its broad tonal range and unmistakable voice. The Burstbucker 2 in the neck position delivers warmth, clarity and vocal-like sustain, while the slightly hotter Burstbucker 3 in the bridge provides added output, bite and harmonic richness. Handwired electronics with CTS potentiometers and Switchcraft components ensure dependable performance and authentic Gibson response, allowing players to move effortlessly between clean passages, classic rock crunch and high-gain lead tones. Together, the pickups capture the character and versatility that have made the Les Paul a studio and stage favorite for generations. Medium C Mahogany Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard for Modern Playability Designed for versatility and comfort, the Les Paul Standard features a mahogany neck carved to a Medium C profile that strikes an ideal balance between slim and substantial. Topped with a one-piece rosewood fingerboard, the neck offers a smooth, familiar playing surface with excellent balance across the fretboard. Narrow-tall frets provide a precise feel for bends and vibrato, while the 12" radius supports everything from chord work to expressive lead playing. Combined with Gibson's long neck tenon construction, the design delivers a playing experience that feels fast, comfortable and unmistakably Gibson. Premium Appointments and Custom Shop Craftsmanship Every detail of the Les Paul Standard reflects Gibson Custom's commitment to craftsmanship and refinement. Single-ply white binding, trapezoid inlays and gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finishes create a clean, contemporary aesthetic, while premium nickel hardware reinforces the guitar's performance-focused design.

Each guitar ships in a Gibson Custom hardshell case.
