Gorgeous... I do have to say the tulip style tuning keys compliment the Gibson headstock much better. But who pays attention to detail...right? Lol

Found this on search here in 2023. Like you, I like the post 2019 Gibson’s and was considering a 59 VOS burst. But I have a beautiful 2003 LP Std that sounds and looks great. So I decided to go with a black custom (I also really liked white but not going to pay $800 more just for white over black). Very happy with the custom and the pickups. Suits what I play well. Only complaint is top three string all bind and chirp in the nut when tuning. Shouldn’t happen with a custom shop guitar. But the rest of fit and finish is excellent. Don’t care if it scratches when polishing. That’s not Al wear. Not a museum piece. Thanks again for the review. Was balanced and helped me know what I was getting.

Glad you like the video and cheers for the great choice of guitar. Yeah the Custom shop is having some absurd issues lately. They need to get it together.

Nitro gets scratched even from the cleaning cloth if not used right. It is extremely hard to keep a black guitar looking mint. If u want mint, buy brand new in a box and wax it often.

When I go to music shops they always mention the 70s when you talk about Gibson Les Pauls, as if that was its heyday beginning and end. It turned me off Gibsons, for a long time. People in shops need to be like this guy and mention how good and modern the black Custom is.

Yeah the Norlin era (70s) were not that great for Gibson. I have tried 80s models, alao nothing special. The 90s (Good wood era) are good, but again - nothing that much better. So the modern stuff is more than ok.

It's a SUMMER SOLSTICE guitar built June 21st. That plus the cool serial number would make me hesitate to keep the guitar. P.S. I thought to get the LONG NECK TENON you need to buy the next model up, the VOS 1957 Custom Historic Reissue ....

I don't get to hang with all you L P Custom owners. All I got is a 97 L P Studio ebony w/ gold trim ebony fretboard. Changed all the electrics and mechanical cheap parts to better quality parts. 496/500 pups, CTS 500K pots ,50's wiring, 011 caps, Switchcraft switch and jack, Tonespro locking bridge, alum tailpiece, Tusc XL nut, Kluson locking tuners, Schaller straplocks. All appropriate pieces in gold, new cream plastic. All in a chainsaw case. Just looks like a old used hot rod.
