Description
The Gibson Les Paul Personal Electric Guitar stands as a testament to innovation and collaboration, born from the synergy between Gibson's esteemed engineers and the legendary Les Paul himself. This guitar takes a bold leap forward in design, integrating features that cater to musicians seeking a unique and versatile instrument. With its angled low impedance pickups, the Les Paul Personal delivers an exceptionally clear, high-fidelity sound that was favored by Les Paul and jazz aficionados alike.
This model boasts a distinctive wider body, diverging from the traditional Les Paul shape, offering both aesthetic appeal and enhanced playability. Among its pioneering features is the intriguing 11-position "Decade" switch, which provides a range of tonal possibilities, allowing players to finely sculpt their sound. Additionally, the onboard microphone input on the guitar's upper bout is designed to accommodate a gooseneck mic, complete with its own output and level control, catering to performers who demand flexibility on stage.
A rare gem in the realm of electric guitars, with only 370 units produced between 1969 and 1973, the Gibson Les Paul Personal is not just an instrument but a piece of history.

The 2012 Les Paul estate auction results indicate that Les owned a LP Personal.
"For some reason the gigs in the UK last year kind of triggered my interest in the old Les Paul again. It brought back memories but I didn't know I still had the tiger-stripe (Personal)." - Jan Akkerman, visible at 0:28s of this video.
