Review: Gibson Custom Shop Jimmy Page Les Paul VOS Electric Guitar with Bigsby (Ebony) |
|---|
February 12th, 2008 | Electric Guitars |
UPDATE: Discontinued!
Let's start with the price - $5999.99. Ok, you haven't left the page yet? Let's take a first quick look at Gibson's latest offering- the Custom Shop Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom.
Let's face it - Jimmy Page made famous the three-pickup 1960 Les Paul custom "Black Beauty" with a Bigsby tailpiece. Gibson has gone to great lengths to recreate this beast. While not my personal style, I can appreciate this guitar on many levels.
With a slim-profile neck, Page BurstBucker pickups, gold Bigsby vibrato and an innovative six-position toggle, you will be rocking solos from Stairway to Heaven like never before. The tone of this instrument makes it unique from other Gibson guitars. Essentially, you are getting more toggle switch control than ever before in a Les Paul. You better act fast though if you like this guitar- Limited to a worldwide edition of just 500 guitars! Gibson is essentially guaranteeing that this guitar accelerates in value over the years. Thanks, Jimmy!
