Personal Reflection (from Jack):

This Les Paul Custom in "Ebony + Ebony" is a real showstopper. The all-black finish, paired with the gold hardware, gives it a sleek and timeless look that really commands attention. There’s just something about a blacked-out Les Paul that feels both classy and powerful—it’s bold, and the gold accents make it pop in all the right ways.

Tonally, the 490R and 498T humbuckers deliver everything you’d expect from a Les Paul Custom. It’s got that thick, full-bodied tone with loads of sustain, but what really stands out is the clarity, even when you push it with high gain. It’s super versatile too, easily handling anything from clean blues to heavy rock without breaking a sweat.

For me, the neck is where this guitar really shines. The medium C profile has just the right balance—not too chunky, not too thin—making it comfortable for both chords and lead work. The ebony fretboard feels incredibly smooth and fast, almost like playing on glass. It’s one of those guitars that just feels luxurious to play from the moment you pick it up.


Condition Report:
This 2023 Les Paul Custom is in mint condition. The Ebony finish is flawless with no visible scratches or dings. The gold hardware remains untarnished and gleams like new. The frets are perfect, and the electronics function impeccably. The guitar has been carefully stored and is virtually untouched, ready for its next owner to enjoy.
