Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Ming Jade
Serial Number: CS500402
Weight: 10.0 lbs.

As Gibson Custom’s flagship model, the Les Paul Custom stays true to its 1950s roots while delivering the tone and performance demanded by today’s players.

Finished in a striking Ming Jade, this guitar stands out both visually and sonically. A solid mahogany body with a two-piece maple top provides a balanced mix of warmth and bite, while the long neck tenon enhances sustain. The ebony fingerboard offers a smooth, articulate playing experience, complemented by the crisp, dynamic voice of the matched 490R and 498T humbuckers.

From jazz to hard rock, the Les Paul Custom delivers versatility, power, and elegance in equal measure. It’s as bold as it looks—and sounds just as stunning.
