The Gibson Custom Shop M2M Les Paul Custom Figured Orange Widow (LPCPSL000000808) is a commanding expression of Custom Shop artistry—where timeless Les Paul elegance meets bold, modern visual impact. Cloaked in a striking Figured Orange Widow finish and sealed in gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, this instrument radiates depth, flame, and dimension. The multi-ply binding frames the carved top with unmistakable Custom pedigree, while gold hardware and black appointments create a dramatic, high-contrast aesthetic worthy of the Les Paul Custom name.

At its core lies a 1-piece mahogany back paired with a 2-piece hand-picked AAA maple top. This classic tonewood combination delivers the authoritative low-end warmth and singing sustain that have defined the Les Paul legacy for generations. Traditional 9-hole weight relief enhances comfort without sacrificing tonal density, preserving the rich, piano-like resonance players expect. The long tenon neck joint maximizes wood-to-wood contact, increasing sustain and harmonic complexity across the entire register.

The solid mahogany neck features a Modern Medium C profile, measuring .82" at the first fret and .965" at the twelfth, offering a comfortable, balanced grip that accommodates both articulate rhythm work and soaring leads. A 24.75" scale length provides the familiar Gibson feel, while the ebony fingerboard—adorned with mother-of-pearl block inlays—adds snap, clarity, and luxurious visual appeal. With a 12" radius, 22 medium-jumbo frets, a 42.85mm Corian nut, and a 56.89mm end-of-board width, the playing surface feels smooth, precise, and ready for expressive bends. An adjustable truss rod ensures long-term stability and fine-tuned setup control.

Tonally, the guitar is powered by a pair of 490 series humbuckers: a 490R in the neck and a 490T in the bridge. Together, they deliver a versatile voice that ranges from warm, rounded cleans to focused midrange punch and saturated sustain under gain. The electronics feature a hand-wired harness with 500K CTS volume and tone pots and a Switchcraft three-way toggle, offering reliable performance and responsive tonal shaping. A standard 1/4" output jack ensures seamless integration into any rig.

The hardware appointments reinforce its Custom Shop stature. A gold Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece provide rock-solid intonation and sustain, while Grover Kidney tuners with gold plating offer smooth, stable tuning. Gold-plated pickup covers contrast beautifully against black mounting rings and a black multi-ply pickguard. Black speed knobs, a cream switch tip with black switch washer, and brass strap buttons complete the refined yet aggressive visual theme. The engraved two-ply Les Paul Custom truss rod cover stands as a final mark of distinction.

Strung with .010–.046 gauge strings and housed in a Custom Shop hardshell case, the Gibson Custom Shop M2M Les Paul Custom Figured Orange Widow includes a Certificate of Authenticity booklet, affirming its premium craftsmanship and exclusivity.

With its hand-selected tonewoods, iconic Les Paul construction, luxurious ebony appointments, and bold Orange Widow aesthetic, this Gibson Custom Shop creation is a statement instrument—designed for players who demand uncompromising tone, elevated artistry, and unmistakable stage presence.
