Our Take:
Since 1955, Gibson’s Les Paul Special has been delivering dual-P90-driven rock tones from an iconic single-cut slab mahogany body and inspiring generations of guitar players with its less-is-more attitude. The new Gibson Les Paul Special seeks to embody all of what originally made the Les Paul specials so attractive: a high-grade slab mahogany body, rosewood fingerboard, and wraparound bridge to name a few. The Les Paul Special simply does not hold back – in both understatedly powerful looks and huge tone.
Gibson’s Take:
The Les Paul Special returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played and loved shaping sound across generations and genres of music. It pays tribute to Gibson’s Golden Era of innovation and brings authenticity back to life. Originally introduced in 1955, the Les Paul Special has been embraced by musicians for over 60 years. It is based on the Les Paul Junior with a slab mahogany body, fat 50s-style mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, wraparound bridge, an additional rhythm P-90 pickup, binding on the neck and additional controls for the rhythm pickup and the 3-way toggle switch. Available in the always classic TV Yellow and Vintage Cherry.
Note: Because wood is an organic material, slight variations in the grain occur naturally and add to the uniqueness of each guitar. Because of these natural variations, the grain of the instrument you receive might not perfectly match the one pictured here.
