Gibson 1957 Les Paul Custom Reissue VOS w/ Ebony Fingerboard (Ebony)

The legendary 1957 Les Paul Custom stands as one of the most visually striking and sonically distinctive guitars ever created, earning its nickname "Black Beauty" through decades of musical history. Gibson Custom Shop has meticulously recreated this iconic instrument, celebrating the company's heritage through uncompromising accuracy and authentic craftsmanship that honours every detail of the original design.

What sets this particular Les Paul apart is its unique construction featuring a body carved from a single large piece of solid mahogany - a distinctive characteristic among Les Paul models.
