Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Classic Vintage White VOS
Item: GBCQCS003418
Les Paul Custom in a hard to find Classic Vintage White that Gibson gave their VOS treatment to. Gibson only did a few Les Paul Customs in this finish in 2011. The Custom Shop has implemented a dozen new manufacturing techniques to give these impeccably accurate instruments the look and feel of actual vintage pieces that have aged gracefully while being played and very well cared for.
The 24 ¾-inch scale length neck is made from one solid piece of mahogany then topped by a 22-fret ebony fingerboard outfitted with figured block inlays, and given Gibson’s traditional rounded profile. The pickups are Gibson’s 490R in the neck position, which offers the tonal characteristics of the original PAFs, and the 498T in the bridge position, which swaps the 490R’s Alnico II magnet for an Alnico V, thus making it slightly hotter with emphasis on mid-ranges and highs.
