Description
A straight-forward flat top Les Paul designed to punch well above its weight, the Gibson Les Paul Special packs some serious muscle on top of classic Les Paul styling and components. The slab mahogany body sports an authentic TV Yellow finish–one of Gibson’s most renowned. The mahogany neck is carved to a ‘50-style rounded profile and has a thinly bound one-piece rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays. The classic nickel-finish hardware set with wraparound bridge offers modern durability and legendary sustain, and the dual P90s offer that fat, signature bark we all know and love.
