Gibson Les Paul Special Guitars

Special for a reason. This isn't your typical Les Paul, oh no. Equipped with P90 pickups and stripped of any fancy finish, the LP Special is ready to rock.

Gibson Les Paul Special Guitars

The Gibson Les Paul Special has made a welcome return to the Gibson USA line-up. Originally introduced in 1955, the Les Paul Special was inspired by the design of the Les Paul Junior. Gibson has worked hard to recreate the Les Paul Special, closely matching the classic design that first made it relevant, played and loved.

The Les Paul Special has had a hand in shaping the sound across many generations and many genres of music. It pays tribute to Gibson's Golden Era of innovation and the Les Paul Special has been embraced by musicians for over 60 years. Key features include a slab mahogany body, fat 50s-style mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboards and a wraparound bridge.

You’ll find the Les Paul special with both humbucker and P90 configurations, available as a USA Les Paul Special or the slightly more affordable USA Les Paul Special Tribute.
