The Real-Deal 70s Rock Machine
This isn’t just a reissue—it’s a time machine with a headstock. The Gibson Les Paul Custom 70s in Tobacco Burst is a straight shot of adrenaline, built for players who crave the vibe, feel, and unapologetic tone of the arena rock era. From the period-correct volute to the golden gleam of its hardware, this guitar is pure, uncut swagger.
The Heart of the Tone: T-Type Power
Gibson’s Calibrated T-Type pickups are the engine of this beast. They deliver that unmistakable 70s Les Paul voice—gutsy, articulate, and dripping with harmonic complexity. The bridge pickup has all the bite and snarl you need to cut through a dense mix, while the neck pickup offers a warm, vocal-like quality that’s perfect for soulful leads and thick rhythms. It’s all hand-wired with Orange Drop capacitors, so your tone stays clear and consistent, even when you roll back the volume.
Authentic 70s Feel
The neck is where this guitar truly comes alive. It’s carved from maple to a chunky-yet-comfortable 70s profile, complete with the iconic volute that defined the era. This adds a touch of heft and a whole lot of sustain. Topped with a glassy, fast-playing ebony fingerboard and Mother of Pearl block inlays, the feel is nothing short of luxurious. It’s a neck that begs you to dig in, bend strings, and play for hours.
Classic Custom Appointments
A Les Paul Custom is all about the details. This one is dressed to the nines with multi-ply binding on the body and headstock, gold hardware, and the legendary split-diamond headstock inlay. The gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish doesn’t just look incredible—it allows the mahogany and maple body to breathe and resonate freely, ensuring the guitar only sounds better with age.
