***The nitro finish has cracked but it does not affect playability or construction and is purely aesthetic.***
The Gibson Custom Shop Hand-Selected Les Paul Custom in Gecko Green Sparkle is available now at Sky Music Australia. Hand-selected during a spring 2023 visit to the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville, Tennessee, this flagship instrument pairs the high standards of its iconic 1950s archetype with striking modern aesthetic flair.
Constructed with a 2-piece plain maple top over a solid 1-piece mahogany body, the guitar features a long neck tenon joint for maximum acoustic sustain and note resonance. Its solid mahogany neck is topped with a 12" radius solid ebony fingerboard, multi-ply binding, and real Mother of Pearl block inlays. Powered by a matched set of Gibson 490R and 498T humbuckers wired with CTS 500K potentiometers, it delivers dynamic warmth, singing sustain, and crisp top-end bite across genres from jazz to heavy rock. Outfitted with gold hardware, Grover Kidney tuners, an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, and a custom hardshell case, it includes a Certificate of Authenticity booklet.
