Gibson Les Paul used by Justin Bieber
Posted on 26 Mar 2010 11:30 to category : Instruments News
Teenage rock star Justin Bieber has posed for a series of photos with his Gibson Les Paulguitar.
Sixteen-year-old Bieber, who shot to fame via YouTube, is set to tour the world later this year after his first single, One Time, was a hit in ten different countries.
He posed with the Gibson Les Paul for Sugar magazine, as he attempts to grow his popularity further in the UK.
The photos were taken at the GibsonGuitar Studio in London, reports the instrument manufacturer's website.
Earlier this month, the Gibson Les Paul came in for praise from a musician from a different generation - Ace Frehley, a former member of Kiss.
He explained that he has used a variety of the guitars throughout his long career in the music industry, when he is playing live shows as well as during studio recording sessions.
"I use Gibson Les Paul Customs live because they're simply the best guitars for loud rock'n'roll," he said.
