LES PAUL STANDARD ’50S CUSTOM SHOP TOP (JAPAN EXCLUSIVE MODEL)

Custom Shop-level aesthetics combined with vintage-inspired, stage-ready specifications.

Introducing a special Japan Exclusive specification of the Gibson Les Paul Standard.

Based on the regular line Gibson Les Paul Standard, this model features a stunning AAA Grade Figured Maple top—a material typically reserved for Custom Shop instruments. The beautifully pronounced figured maple grain shifts dramatically with the light, granting the guitar an overwhelming visual presence and an aura that clearly sets it apart from standard models.

The body back features a vibrant Cherry finish. Furthermore, while a standard Les Paul Standard comes equipped with Burstbucker 1/2 pickups, this exclusive model features '57 Classic Underwound pickups instead.

Based on the iconic '57 Classic, the underwound specs feature fewer coil turns, resulting in clearer harmonics and a highly dynamic tone that captures every subtle nuance of your playing.

From its refined looks down to its vintage-style tuning machines and pickups, this Les Paul Standard is meticulously crafted for the true connoisseur.

AAA Grade Figured Maple Top

The defining feature of this guitar is its Custom Shop-grade AAA Figured Maple top.

The exquisite grain changes its expression depending on the light, giving it a captivating visual elegance that immediately draws you in.

The ability to enjoy such a premium top wood on a regular-line Les Paul Standard is a rare privilege unique to this exclusive model.

'57 Classic Underwound Pickups

Equipped with '57 Classic Underwound pickups, which feature a lower coil winding count compared to standard '57 Classics.

By slightly lowering the output, these pickups enhance picking articulation and chord clarity, while allowing effortless tone control through your amplifier's gain or the guitar's volume knobs.

Channeling the essence of vintage PAF tone, this setup provides a practical, highly versatile sound tailored for modern live performances and studio recording.

Vintage-Style Tuning Machines

Outfitted with vintage-style tuners featuring classic keystone buttons.

Combined with the AAA Figured Maple top, these tuners further elevate the guitar’s refined, vintage-inspired aesthetic.

Comfortable and Agile Playability

This particular instrument feels impressively nimble for a Les Paul. While individual weights vary, this unit comes in at an agile 4.1 kg range, making it remarkably lightweight and comfortable to handle.

The neck profile pays homage to the '50s Les Paul tradition without feeling overly thick, offering a comfortable grip that fits naturally in the hand. It allows for smooth movement and comfortable playability even during extended playing sessions.

A Reliable Workhorse for Stage and Studio

The first thing that takes your breath away is its stunning appearance.

Yet beyond its visual appeal, its vintage-voiced pickups, nimble handling, and comfortable neck profile make it far more than just a collector's piece. This is a true workhorse built to perform at the highest level on stage and in the studio.

With the striking visual presence of its AAA Figured Maple top and the vintage-inspired tone of the '57 Classic Underwound pickups, this Japan Exclusive model is an irresistible choice for players who refuse to compromise on either looks or sound.
