Ryan Mendez has owned several Gibson Les Paul Custom's. It was his first guitar too, as revealed in this interview. He says, "'When I was 16, I got my first real guitar, which was a black Gibson Les Paul Custom, and it was like a dream come true,' Mendez remembers. 'I come from a background of liking a lot of the harder rock stuff. Growing up, a lot of the artists I listened to used Gibson: Slash, Zakk Wylde, Led Zeppelin. To me, it’s like the classic hard-rock guitar.'”
