Full Description
View Full DescriptionModern flagship Les Paul design
The Les Paul Supreme stands at the top of Gibson's modern production lineup, combining traditional Les Paul heritage with contemporary refinements. Its clean, pickguard-free appearance highlights the elegant Ebony finish and premium detailing, creating a sophisticated look that stands out on stage. Multi-ply binding on the top and headstock, along with single-ply fretboard binding, adds a refined touch that reflects the instrument's flagship status. The headstock also features a distinctive mother-of-pearl "Chandelier" inlay inspired by a design discovered in the Gibson archives from the 1940s, blending historic inspiration with modern craftsmanship.
Burstbucker Pro tonal versatility
At the core of the Les Paul Supreme's sound is a pair of Burstbucker pickups designed to capture the spirit of vintage Gibson humbuckers. The Burstbucker Pro Rhythm pickup in the neck position produces warm, articulate tones with excellent clarity for clean passages and expressive lead playing. The Burstbucker Pro+ Lead pickup in the bridge position provides additional output and bite for powerful rhythm tones and soaring solos. Together they deliver a wide dynamic range that retains the classic Gibson character while offering the punch and definition required for modern performance.
Ebony fingerboard with compound radius
The mahogany neck is carved to Gibson's comfortable SlimTaper profile and topped with an ebony fingerboard that features a compound radius from 10 to 16 inches. This design allows comfortable chord playing near the nut while providing a flatter surface higher up the neck for bends and fast lead playing. The 22 medium jumbo frets and elegant Super Split Block mother-of-pearl inlays enhance both playability and appearance. A modern contoured heel further improves access to the upper frets, ensuring smooth transitions across the entire fingerboard.
Premium hardware and advanced controls
The Les Paul Supreme is equipped with high-quality hardware designed for reliability and performance. A Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge paired with a lightweight aluminium stop bar tailpiece provides excellent sustain and precise intonation. Locking Grover tuners with Keystone buttons improve tuning stability and simplify string changes. The electronics offer extensive tonal flexibility, including push/pull volume controls for coil tapping and push/pull tone controls that activate phase switching and Pure Bypass. These options allow players to move from classic humbucker sounds to brighter single-coil-style tones with ease.
