Premium tonewoods

Beneath the striking figured maple top, the Gibson Custom Made 2 Measure Les Paul Custom Figured features a solid mahogany body, a classic combination known for its rich, warm tonal characteristics. This pairing of maple and mahogany defines the Les Paul’s signature sound, delivering a blend of clarity, bite, and smooth low-end resonance. The mahogany body produces a full, rounded tone with plenty of sustain, while the maple adds brightness and focus. This tonewood recipe ensures a balanced voice that suits a wide range of playing styles, from articulate lead lines to thick, textured rhythm work.

Unrivalled playability

This guitar is designed with effortless playability in mind. It features a solid ebony fingerboard that offers a sleek, fast surface under your fingers, delivering crisp note articulation and excellent dynamic response. Ebony is known for its density and durability, providing a smooth, glassy feel ideal for both rhythm and lead work. Enhancing this is the long neck tenon construction, which improves the physical connection between neck and body, resulting in greater resonance and sustain. Every detail has been considered to support an intuitive, expressive playing experience that adapts to your touch.

Versatile electronics

Equipped with a 490R humbucker in the neck and a 498T in the bridge, this Les Paul Custom offers remarkable tonal versatility. The 490R delivers rich, rounded tones with plenty of warmth, perfect for soulful cleans and smooth leads. Meanwhile, the 498T packs a more aggressive punch with enhanced upper mids, ideal for cutting through in high-gain settings. With independent volume and tone controls for each pickup and a three-way selector switch, the guitar provides exceptional flexibility—ready to tackle anything from classic rock to modern metal, blues, or fusion-inspired tones.

Custom Shop craftsmanship

Handcrafted in the Gibson Custom Shop, this Les Paul represents the very best in modern luthiery. Each stage of its creation—from wood selection and carving to fretwork and final setup—is carried out with precision by master builders who uphold Gibson’s long-standing tradition of excellence. The attention to detail is evident not only in the guitar’s luxurious finish and flawless construction but also in its effortless playability and consistent tone.
