This is an unusual finish, very eye-catching. The guitar is one of the 2013 Signature T model LP. I contacted Gibson directly to figure out what I had. Features include coil taps on both burstbuckers, plus a funky non-standard silver textured hard case. Looks, plays and sounds great.

Here's the original Gibson spec:

Les Paul Signature "T"

Gibson USA is celebrating 2013 as the Year of Les Paul, and there’s no better tribute than a

guitar dedicated to the man himself. The Les Paul Signature “T” wraps all of Les Paul’s legendary

innovation into a sweet looking and great sounding Les Paul that honors the memory of this

legendary guitar’s inventor, while providing an instrument primed for the power and versatility

demanded by today’s gigging guitarist. Traditional tonewoods are married to enhanced playing

comfort and two of Gibson’s finest PAF-style humbucking pickups, with upgraded switching for

bonus single-coil tones. The Grade-AA figured maple top looks great beneath your choice of

Translucent Ebony, Alpine White Burst, Wine Red, or Vintage Sunburst finish, all in high-gloss

nitrocellulose lacquer. Or select a classic Goldtop finish. To kick it all into the 21st century—

and remember, Les Paul was an innovator first and foremost—the Les Paul Signature “T” is also

available with optional Min-ETuneTM automated “robot” tuning, which can be added to your

guitar with no internal modification for a nominal upcharge. The Les Paul Signature “T” is

available in a left-handed model, and you can add extra class to this tribute to the man himself

by opting for the Les Paul Signature “T” Gold Series, with the elegance of gold-plated hardware.

The Les Paul Signature “T” is built on a foundation of the same traditional tonewood

combination that helped to make the Les Paul Standard legendary when it first arrived six

decades ago. A carved solid Grade-AA figured maple top lends bite and articulation to the

sound, while a select mahogany back—treated with Gibson’s traditional weight relief to increase

playing comfort and enhance resonance—contributes superb warmth and depth. A solid,

quarter-sawn mahogany neck is glued in and carved in the fast 60s SlimTaperTM profile, and

topped with a rich brown Grade-A Granadillo fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets and

traditional trapezoid inlays. Traditional touches include cream body and fingerboard binding,

pickguard, and pickup rings, along with gold Speed Knobs and a black “bell” truss-rod cover

with commemorative “T” engraving. Classic Gibson construction ensures optimum playability,

too, along with traditional specs like a 24 3⁄4” scale length, a 1 11/16” width across the PLEK-cut

CorianTM nut, and a 12-inch fingerboard radius for smooth, easy bending.

For a blend of vintage tone and modern versatility, the Les Paul Signature “T” is loaded with a

pair of Gibson’s ’57 ClassicTM pickups, mounted “open coil” for a subtle hotrod look. Both are

made in the image of the hallowed PAF humbucker of the late 1950s with Alnico II magnets in

the neck position for plenty of warmth and clarity, and in the bridge position, the ’57 Classic

PlusTM which features slightly over-wound coils for juicy crunch and wailing lead tones. Both

pickups are wax potted, too, to avoid microphonic squeal at high volume levels. Both pickups

feature push-pull tone controls which provide coil splitting for authentic single-coil tones. The

innovative pairing of a Tune-o-MaticTM bridge and Stopbar tailpiece ensures solid sustain and

precise intonation, while a set of high-quality GroverTM locking tuners ensures smooth, accurate

tuning. Upgrade to the Les Paul Signature “T” Gold Series for the custom touch of gold-plated

hardware, or select automated Min-ETuneTM “robot” tuners as a factory option on the standard

edition.

Each guitar includes a Gibson hardshell case covered in black snakeskin-textured vinyl, an

owner's manual, and truss-rod wrench, and comes covered by Gibson USA's Limited Lifetime

Warranty and 24/7/365 Customer Service.
