For the fall of 2014, Gibson Custom releases the Robby Krieger 1954 Les Paul Custom, while the USA division launches the Bill Kelliher Halcyon Les Paul.
Gibson USA and Gibson Custom are launching a double Les Paul attack. Two signature models are being introduced, one by each division. Gibson Custom unveils the limited run of Robby Krieger 1954 Les Paul Custom. Only 300 will be made and only the first 50 will be played, approve and signed by the legend himself. Gibson USA, on the other hand, is releasing a signature model of a legend in the making. Bill Kelliher of Mastodon receives his second signature model. This one is named Bill Kelliher Halcyon Les Paul and is, what many experts agree upon, the heaviest LP of all time.
Gibson Custom Robby Krieger 1954 Les Paul Custom is a solid, single-cut LP made of a single, solid piece of mahogany. No weight relief, no chambers. Aged crème binding, a classic two-piece bridge unit with gold plating and a customized pickups combo are featured on the top. Gibson P-90 in the bridge and Seymour Duncan minibucker in the neck are accompanied by a standard LP controls unit. Set mahogany neck is topped with a 22-fret ebony fingerboard.
