Les Paul Guitar

With its sleek lines and Ebony/Pearl/Gold aesthetic, the 1957 Les Paul Custom is downright one of the most iconic and beautiful guitars ever made. It features a body carved from a single large piece of solid mahogany, unique among Les Paul models. The body's resulting mid-range sound pairs perfectly with its bright-sounding solid ebony fingerboard. This set is the pinnacle of guitar craftsmanship and design. Gibson Custom Shop is proud to revive every detail of the original "Black Beauty" for this '57 Les Paul Custom Reissue.

ARTICLE N° 71430
The 1957 Les Paul Custom Reissue is an exact reproduction of the Black Beauty. It represents the excellence of Gibson violin making, as if you had bought it in a store in 1957, plus consistency in manufacturing quality. A collector's item, to say the least!
