Powerful Humbucking Pickups

Use the 3-way pickup selector to switch between the pickups or blend them for a balanced sound. Whether you’re playing soft melodies or heavy rock riffs, this guitar has the tone you need.

Maple and Mahogany for Perfect Tone

One of the key features of the 1968 Les Paul Custom is its solid maple top paired with a mahogany back. The maple top adds clarity and brightness, letting each note ring out clearly, while the mahogany back provides warmth and resonance for a rich, full sound. Together, these tonewoods create excellent sustain and note separation, making this guitar perfect for solos, chords and everything in between.
