  • Personal Thoughts

    This is a really cool and very individual Les Paul conversion. The Translucent Fuchsia finish already makes it stand out from the usual Gibson lineup, but the real appeal here is how far the spec has been pushed while still keeping the core Les Paul Standard ’60s platform underneath. The triple Whisperbucker setup, gold hardware and FRX system gives it a much more custom, almost boutique hot-rodded feel, while the crown inlays take it even further away from standard production spec. I also really like that the switching has been thought through properly rather than just adding extra hardware for the sake of it. Having the ability to move between humbucker and single-coil voices across the pickup set makes this a much broader guitar than a normal Les Paul, and the middle pickup option should open up some really interesting extra sounds. The FRX is another nice touch because it adds that vibrato capability without totally abandoning the Les Paul format. A very bold, very fun and very distinctive custom conversion.
