Les Paul Custom was introduced back in 1954, at Les Paul`s personal request. The idea was to introduce an exclusive, flagship model for the new and budding solid-body range. Black body and gold-plated hardware were selected as the first color option for the new LP. Les Paul Custom (Limited Run) is one of the best and finest tributes to the late 1950`s Custom models. It costs $3,999 and offers the genuine twin-humbucker Les Paul Custom experience. The color palette is restricted to Ebony (w/gold-plated hardware, multi-layered binding, black plastics). Core construction features include a solid mahogany body base, two-piece maple body top, solid mahogany neck, 22-fret fingerboard made of richlite, tune-o-matic/stoptail bridge, 498T/490R pickups combo, and Grover Kidney tuners.
