Personal Reflection
The Trans Amber finish on this Les Paul Supreme showcases an incredible AAA flame maple top that’s nothing short of mesmerizing. Gibson’s Supreme series combines luxury with performance, and this Version 1 model is a prime example, featuring a double-carved flame maple top and back that adds depth and beauty to the guitar from every angle. The ebony fingerboard provides a smooth, articulate playing experience, and the split-block inlays with abalone detailing bring an extra touch of elegance to the instrument. The chambered mahogany body ensures a lighter weight without sacrificing that signature Les Paul sustain and resonance. The Gibson 490R and 498T humbuckers deliver a powerful, clear tone with plenty of warmth in the neck and an aggressive edge in the bridge. This guitar is ideal for those who want a premium Les Paul experience with a touch of added flair and luxurious detail.
