Available now at Sadek Music, the Gibson Les Paul Custom delivers the perfect blend of elegance and power. With its sonic punch, fluid playability, and classic “tuxedo” appointments, this iconic instrument is equal parts refinement and brute strength.
Equipped with a matched 490R/498T humbucker set, the Les Paul Custom easily shifts from mellow jazz tones to full shred with just a pinky twist, offering ultra-responsive dynamics to every touch. Its fast-action neck, smooth ebony fingerboard, and medium-jumbo frets make for effortless playability — ideal for the expressive styles of virtuosos like Robert Fripp, Al Di Meola, and Zakk Wylde.
Handcrafted by Gibson’s Custom Shop luthiers, this guitar features a premium mahogany body topped with a 2-piece carved maple cap, delivering rich, sustaining, and articulate tones that cut through any mix.

A tradition of effortless playability
The Gibson Les Paul Custom is well known for its playability; many guitarists use the word “effortless” to describe it. Soon after its 1954 introduction, players (and Gibson literature) started referring to it as the “Fretless Wonder.” It wasn’t fretless, of course, but Gibson had fitted the Custom with flat, low-profile frets, which allowed your fingers to fly over the fingerboard. Today’s LP Custom is equipped with medium-jumbo frets more suited to contemporary playing styles, but seamless playability remains a hallmark of this iconic solidbody electric guitar.
A classic tonewood recipe for sustain and articulation
Sadek Music, the Gibson Les Paul Custom features a classic tonewood recipe that delivers exceptional sustain and articulation. While the original Les Paul Custom had an all-mahogany body, today’s model pairs a solid mahogany body with a carved 2-piece maple top — a combination renowned for its rich resonance, massive sustain, and precise note clarity. The result is a highly playable instrument that looks as stunning as it sounds. Gold hardware adds a luxurious finishing touch, completing the unmistakable elegance of the Gibson Les Paul Custom, proudly offered by Sadek Music.
Matched humbucker set delivers a universe of tone on the Gibson Les Paul Custom
This Gibson Les Paul Custom is spec’d with a matched pair of 490/498 humbuckers. Naturally, these pickups really shine when pumping out the classic fat, snarling tone that is the Les Paul’s stock-in-trade. They are delightfully responsive, though — simply roll back the volume, and they clean up beautifully. Sadek guitarists love this pickup combo, and so will you. Whether you’re delivering your musical message with mellow jazz tones, bone-rattling crunch, or a blistering liquid inferno — the Gibson Les Paul Custom rewards your touch with world-class responsiveness.
Gibson voiced the pickups on the Les Paul Custom for tonal characteristics similar to their ’57 Classics, but with a slight increase in the upper mids for a more contemporary humbucker sound. The neck-position 490R gives you the tonal characteristics of an original PAF, albeit with a slight upper-mid bump, which delivers clarity and definition that complement the wonderfully warm sound of this pickup: great for tasty, chimey rhythm work. Gibson’s 498T alnico humbucker is the ideal bridge pickup if your playing requires an emphasis on mids and highs. A high-output version of the 490T, this pickup combines a slightly hotter Alnico V magnet with a specially wound coil combination. The result is increased crunch and sustain — a potent sonic elixir for heavier music styles. Each pickup’s pole pieces are aligned to match the string spacing at the neck and bridge, respectively.
Nitro finish, for the look and feel of a classic
Available at Sadek Music, the Gibson Les Paul Custom features a stunning nitrocellulose lacquer finish that captures the authentic look and feel of a vintage classic. Unlike modern polyurethane coatings, nitro finishes are thinner, allowing the wood to breathe and resonate more freely — enhancing both tone and character. Beyond its timeless aesthetic, this finish ensures the guitar will age gracefully, developing a unique patina over time. The result is a Les Paul Custom that not only looks amazing but also sounds richer and more resonant with every performance — a true classic, available now at Sadek Music.
