Gold and bold, we're excited to offer this Gibson Custom Shop '56 Les Paul Standard in Light Aged All Gold. As part of the 2026 Gibson Custom Shop Limited Edition Collection, this model is highly limited and worthy of any players collection. Taking inspiration from years of custom orders through the Made to Measure program, the folks in Nashville, TN have truly out done themselves.

This '56 Les Paul gets its signature single-cutaway silhouette from a mahogany body and maple top – a tonewood pairing used for decades that delivers resonance, sustain, and clarity. It's top bound all gold body sports cream plastics, gold top hat knobs, and gold hardware – classy. True to historic spec, a set of P-90's rest in the bridge and neck positions, offering that blissful fat single-coil sound with warmth and bite. The pickups can be tuned to taste with the volume/tone controls and 3-way toggle switch.

For its neck, a chunky 1950s Chunky D shaped mahogany neck is attached to the body by a long neck tenon in a set-neck fashion – just like the originals. This neck profile feels like home, a substantial platform to hold onto while fretting and strumming. The neck is topped with a bound rosewood fingerboard and is crowned with 22 narrow tall frets and accented with 10 aged trapezoid inlay markers. A set of standard 10-46 gauge strings are strung through the stopbar tailpiece and ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, rest in the nylon nut slots, and are tuned to pitch with the Kluson Deluxe tuning machines. The open book headstock proudly wears the Gibson logo and Les Paul Model silk screen.

The entire guitar as undergone Gibson's Murphy Lab Light Aged treatment – recreating 50 years' worth of wear. With this treatment, imagine the guitar was used daily at home but taken out for jam sessions and gigs a few times a month. You'll find softened edges, finish checking/flaking, cloudy hardware, and light dings, plus it'll feel great in the hands. When the guitar comes aged from the factory there is no need to play nice – do your worse and the guitar will only look better.

The '56 Les Paul comes complete with a Lifton reissue case and COA. Stay golden.
