The Gibson Les Paul Special Double Cut is directly derived from the historic Les Paul Special of 1955, which itself was an evolution of the Les Paul Junior from 1954. This essential but high-quality solid body guitar was originally designed as a student model and was soon adopted by professionals. With the addition of a second pickup, dedicated controls, a selector switch, binding on the fingerboard, and a mother-of-pearl logo on the headstock, the Special expanded the sonic possibilities of the Junior while maintaining its straightforward character and classic wraparound bridge.

In 1958, the double cutaway version debuted, providing improved access to the higher frets, which was further refined in 1960 with the SlimTaper™ neck profile and a new pickup positioning at the neck for greater structural stability. These developments have made the Les Paul Special one of the most iconic and versatile guitars in Gibson's history, representing an ideal synthesis of simplicity, power, and playability.

The body, constructed from mahogany, is paired with a mahogany neck featuring a 60s SlimTaper™ profile.

The fingerboard, made of rosewood, is equipped with 22 Medium Jumbo frets and a 12" radius, offering a natural feel during performances, making it ideal for extended playing sessions.

The electronics consist of a set of Gibson Custom USA P-90 Soapbar pickups, connected to CTS® potentiometers and Bumblebee capacitors, delivering a rich and dynamic sound that ranges from clean, crystal-clear tones to gritty distortions.

The Wraparound bridge and Gibson Deluxe tuners complete the setup, ensuring stable and precise tuning.
