Personal Thoughts
This 2023 Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Mod is an extraordinary and truly unique guitar, straight from Gibson’s Mod Shop. The standout feature is the Orchid Pearlescent finish, which shifts beautifully between green and purple under light—a real showstopper. Paired with the Super 400 style fret markers on the sleek ebony fingerboard, this guitar exudes elegance and exclusivity.
Equipped with a single Custombucker Alnico III pickup, it delivers a pure, articulate tone with warm mids and a dynamic response, perfect for expressive playing. The Slim Taper neck profile ensures effortless playability, making it a joy to handle whether you're laying down chunky rhythm parts or intricate leads. It’s no wonder this guitar was featured on Gibson’s Instagram and originally sold for over £6.5k—it’s a rare collector’s piece with both exceptional aesthetics and tone.
