Critic Reviews

Gibson Les Paul Custom review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The Gibson Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar is lauded for its unbeatable kudos and monster tone, delivering a rich and buttery sound that makes every penny worthwhile. However, it's notably heavy and not as fast as modern shred axes, which might be a drawback for some players. Despite lacking the historical appointments of its 50s predecessor, this guitar remains a slice of heaven for those willing to embrace its weight and cost, making you feel like a rock legend in the vein of Jimmy Page.

Tonally weighted toward lower notes as standard, but an incredibly versatile foundation for custom modifications

The beautifully designed and sized mahogany body both balances the instrument impeccably and radiates sustain throughout the entire tonal range, with harmonics developing in a linear, predictable fashion as the ambient volume increases. . The intuitively proportioned, narrow neck and fingerboard, combined with its medium scale make extended chords and widely spaced fingering surprisingly easy, taking advantage of an ergonomically radius that comfortably encourages movement along its length, while the full bodied comfortable frets in conjunction with the natural balance reduce tiredness during and after extended playing and exude confidence from all but the least experienced musician. . Gibson's pickups are without doubt clear, articulate and sensitive, with the kind of quiet, cleanliness one would expect from a premium guitar, the ability to register even the slightest nuances at low level and a rich, powerful projection when cranked up that enable the musical purity to cut through the well controlled and subtle microphony that even in the cleanly manufactured wax potted coils, makes its presence felt, but at a level that adds character in spades, rather than the coarse, uncontrolled, discordant fashion of lesser offerings. . Potentiometers, wiring, earthing and shielding of cavities are silent for the most part with little, or no R.F. Interfearance, maintaining the musicality of the outgoing signal. . The machine heads are precise, with little backlash in the gearing and a soft, smooth operation which when set, stays put throughout all but the most vigorous strumming and string bending, making for a. Rewarding rich sounding experience, with minimal need for adjustment due to string creep. . With the attention to quality control in the hardware section, the plating is very even and lustrous, giving yet more reason, if any were needed, to trust in Gibson's ability to produce what is and has been for some considerable time, the industry standard where electric guitars are concerned. . If I HAD to make one criticism, it would be to highlight the guitar's tendency to resonate in a very slightly bass heavy fashion, but that is nothing that can't be allowed for in the choice of strings and amplifier settings........ . By far the biggest accomplishment in my opinion, is the way the guitar lends itself to customisation. Especially in the wiring department. Replacing the bridge pickup with a very slightly "Brighter" one transforms the guitar, in my opinion. Opening its range and vocabulary. Making it by far the most versatile and playable guitar on the market today... . All this being said. These are purely my own, personal opinions, no doubt endowed with just a little positive bias having owned many Gibson Les Paul models over the years. Each one being the leader in its price range.

shermantypething

Love this thing!

This is on my top ten guitars of all time! Really clean tone and rustic at the same time. The color is real sweet too. I do recommend!

guy_d_angelo

In a class of its own.

For the last few years Les Paul Custom's are being made exclusively at the Custom Shop, those guys know what they're doing and it shows. I'm not afraid to change/upgrade where & when it's needed, but apart form replacing the tuners with Sperzel locking ones I haven't done anything else, this guitar's perfect as it is, pickups and all, don't change anything: just plug in and enjoy this wonderful instrument. Highly recommended.

cocopunk1486

It's a Gibson, enough said

I don't like using it for live stuff since it is bottom heavy, but if I'm just recording or playing then it's my go-to guitar. There's a reason they're on the heavy side. The tones are great, and it's got nice action. Les Pauls are rightly at the top of their field. Only thing I don't like, aside for the weight, is the price. But that's coming from a college student whose last five meals have consisted of peanut butter sandwiches and granola bars so, whatever. In the grand scheme of things, maybe $5000 is a reasonable price.

jimmarchi1

sometimes its worth eating nothing but peanutbutter sandwiches and rammen noodles for a while...

Nice!

Decent guitar. I like the color and the build and it has a very nice sound.

gary_dizon

I love the Ebony fretboard and the feel of a Gibson Les Paul Custom

My Custom was a little different. It was all mahogany without a maple top. Binding on the top and bottom and it was a Norlin period that rocked. The neck was mahogany and the ebony fretboard gave the guitar brightness. This was a guitar with sustain and clarity and worked for any genre of music.

icantshred

Best guitar

This was my first real guitar. It was my only guitar for over a decade. It's still my number one.

I

I'm hoping for this to be my first real guitar as well (well a cheaper alternative for not far off a grand) would you still recommend it?

paulmills123

Incredible sustain.

2007 Gibson Les Paul Custom in Ebony. 2007 appears to be the last year that Gibson produced these guitars with ebony fingerboards, before they switched to using Richlite. The guitar has previously been upgraded with a Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge position, and has now been fitted with the Seymour Duncan Blackouts Active Modular Pre-Amp.

darren_hightower

Fantastic sounding and well built classic guitar

I've had my Gibson Les Paul Custom for nearly four years now and it's probably my favorite guitar. It plays beautifully and nails the classic Les Paul sound. It's also very versatile, and fits in with both heavy and lighter fare. Definitely a keeper.

jimmarchi1

Is yours a black beuty or a 'cream' white one? Man am I sucker for a well-aged white LP custom, dead sexy!

darren_hightower

It's sort of a black beauty, but all chrome hardware. It's exactly the Les Paul Custom I'd always wanted but hadn't seen available except for a custom order. I snatched it up as soon as I saw it. I love the cream/white customs like Randy Rhoads had as well. I never wanted one but they're beautiful guitars.

wivariders

Most Rockin' Guitar

The tone on this guitar is equally insanely crunchy and undeniably classic. Whenever we write a song that needs that extra "rock n roll" vibe, we bust this thing out and it always delivers the goods. There is a reason that it resides in our studio's most visible spot.

From a Vintage Guitar Magazine article, "John Frusciante: Red Hot On The Empyrean" it is revealed that John Frusciante owns a 1969 Gibson Les Paul Custom:

The Les Paul is a ’69, but I’m not sure what years the ES-175 and 335 are from. I don’t play those much; I bought them because Steve Howe played them, but they don’t really go with my style that well. I feel like Strats are an extension of me, and a Jaguar feels like the next closest thing to being an extension of me. Les Pauls and SGs seem like a further stretch. With a 175 or 335, I feel like a totally different person. I barely see a relationship to the way I play and the way those guitars are set up. You grow up developing a style on a Strat, and that’s what you play all the time.
