Recreates Adam's #1 Guitar - His 1979 Silverburst Les Paul Custom

A beautiful recreation of Adam Jones’ iconic 1979 Gibson Les Paul, this guitar is finished in an antique Silverburst VOS finish. The 3-piece maple neck is authentic to the original Rounded C profile and features a smooth ebony fretboard with Mother of Pearl block inlay. The guitar’s diverse spectrum of tones is provided by a reverse mounted Custombucker pickup at the neck and a custom-wound Seymour Duncan® DDJ down by the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge. Topped off with dedicated Volume and Tone knobs, this guitar is built to replicate Jones’ original and features his own custom graphic as well as a replica headstock mirror in the hardshell case.
