PRODUCT DETAILS
Beautiful 2001 Gibson Les Paul Custom – Excellent Condition
A rare and captivating example, this 2001 Gibson Les Paul Custom is finished in the seldom-seen Heritage Cherry Sunburst, a colour typically reserved for Standards and rarely applied to Customs. Built during a golden era for Gibson USA production, this instrument combines classic aesthetics with the tone and playability demanded by serious professionals and collectors alike.
The Les Paul Custom, first introduced in 1954 as Gibson’s “tuxedo” model, was designed to be the company’s flagship solid-body electric. Known for its elegant appointments, rich sustain, and authoritative voice, it has been favoured by artists such as Randy Rhoads, Peter Frampton, and Adam Jones.
This 2001 model features the 490R neck pickup and 498T bridge pickup, delivering a warm, articulate neck tone with a biting, harmonically rich bridge—perfect for everything from soulful blues to searing rock leads. The solid ebony fretboard, medium-jumbo frets, and Grover tuners ensure exceptional feel, precise intonation, and rock-solid tuning stability.
Condition is superb, with only light signs of natural ageing and minor wear to the gold hardware, adding a touch of vintage character without detracting from its beauty or performance. It has been professionally inspected and set up in our on-site workshop to ensure optimal playability.
Complete with its original Gibson USA hard case and owner’s manual, this Les Paul Custom is as ready for the stage as it is for a curated collection.
