About this listing
Gibson Les Paul Custom Shop Blackout 2018 Diablo Yellow - Limited Run 01 of 25 - Pickups EMG 81/85One of only 25 examples produced worldwide, this Gibson Les Paul Custom Shop Blackout Chambered in Diablo Yellow represents one of the rarest and most visually striking modern Custom Shop runs ever released by Gibson. Designed as part of the highly exclusive Blackout Series, this model combined the classic Les Paul Custom platform with a far more aggressive and contemporary aesthetic, resulting in a guitar that feels equally at home in a high-end collection as it does on stage.The Diablo Yellow finish is a defining part of the instrument’s identity. Inspired by exotic automotive colors and paired with fully blacked-out hardware and appointments, the guitar delivers a bold yet refined visual presence that stands apart from traditional Custom Shop offerings without ever feeling excessive. The contrast between the vibrant finish and the stealth-style black details gives this model a unique personality that immediately distinguishes it from standard Les Paul Customs.Its chambered mahogany construction provides a noticeably more resonant and lightweight feel while preserving the sustain and authority expected from a Les Paul Custom. The original EMG 81 and 85 pickup set further reinforces the guitar’s modern character, delivering the same powerful and articulate response associated with players such as Zakk Wylde, James Hetfield and Kerry King. From tight rhythm work to saturated lead tones, the guitar captures the unmistakable voice that defined countless hard rock and metal recordings throughout the last decades.What makes this particular model especially desirable is the combination of extreme rarity, Custom Shop pedigree and niche collector appeal. Unlike many limited Gibson releases that leaned heavily toward vintage recreations, the Blackout Series embraced a completely different direction focused on modern performance, bold aesthetics and exclusivity, making surviving examples increasingly difficult to find on the market today.This guitar remains in above excellent condition and has been exceptionally well preserved. It includes the original Gibson Custom Shop hard case, certificate of authenticity and complete case candy, making it an outstanding opportunity for collectors searching for one of the most uncommon and distinctive Les Paul Custom Shop models of the modern era.-----Serial Number: CS703619Includes: OHSC + case candy + Custom Shop rarity finished in striking Diablo Yellow!Weight: 3.846kg / 8.479lbs-----*** I usually have some interesting items for sale... check out my other listings! ***The pictures/videos in the listings are of the actual item so please have a look for an idea of the cosmetic condition.
