**** SOLD ****
A striking Gibson Custom Shop Class 5 Les Paul finished in a deep translucent blue over a beautifully figured maple top. This Gibson’s Custom Shop history: premium top, Custom Shop build quality, classic Les Paul construction, and a more distinctive look than the usual burst finishes.
This one has the full Les Paul formula: carved figured maple top, mahogany body and neck, rosewood fingerboard with trapezoid inlays, dual Gibson PAF-style humbuckers, ABR-1 style bridge, stopbar tailpiece, Gibson Deluxe tuners, and the original-style Custom Art & Historic hardshell case.
The blue top is the star here — dark, moody, and highly figured without being overly flashy. Under different lighting it shifts from deep denim/navy to a brighter translucent blue, with the flame figuring coming through beautifully.
Highlights:
