Description
With its elegant lines and ebony/mother-of-pearl/gold aesthetic, the 1957 Les Paul Custom is undoubtedly one of the most iconic and beautiful guitars ever made. The body is carved from a single piece of large solid mahogany, which is rare among Les Paul models. The resulting dark mid-tone body is a perfect match for the bright-sounding solid ebony fretboard. Overall, it's the pinnacle of guitar artistry, design, and tone. For this 1957 Les Paul Custom Reissue, Gibson Custom Shop created every detail of the original Black Beauty, from the dimensions and contours to the precise inlay pattern to the overall player experience.
