Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Made 2 Measure – Pelham Blue

Crafted to inspire and built to perform, this Made 2 Measure Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom in striking Pelham Blue is a Tone Shop Guitars exclusive—offering a perfect fusion of historic design, modern refinement, and timeless tone.

As Gibson Custom Shop’s crown jewel, the Les Paul Custom channels the elegance and sonic authority of its 1950s predecessor while pushing the envelope with player-focused upgrades. At its core is a resonant one-piece mahogany body, chambered for improved balance, capped with a two-piece plain maple top—delivering rich sustain and a precise midrange bite that cuts through any mix.

Under the hood, the hand-wired '57 Classic and '57 Classic Plus humbuckers provide a versatile tonal palette—from smooth jazz cleans to searing rock leads—all grounded by a solid ebony fingerboard and anchored with a classic long neck tenon for unmatched sustain and stability.

This Pelham Blue finish is anything but subtle—its sleek, metallic sheen pairs beautifully with the Les Paul Custom’s signature multi-ply binding and nickel hardware, making a bold visual statement that’s as refined as its sound.

Whether you're chasing iconic vintage tones or carving out your own sonic identity, this Made to Measure Les Paul Custom is ready for the stage, the studio, and the spotlight.
