The Les Paul Junior’s very Special younger brother

The Les Paul Special’s appearance disguises the wide range of tonal options available from the two Soapbar P-90 pickups and the individual volume and tone controls; by adjusting your picking hand position, as well as varying the settings on the knobs, you can coax an impressive range of very cool tones out of a Special.

Now, Gibson is proud to introduce the Les Paul Special Faded, a guitar designed for today’s players that embraces the spirit of those no-nonsense vintage Les Paul Specials. The Les Paul Special Faded features all of the essential elements that have made the Les Paul Special a favorite of students and professionals for 70 years, including a pair of Soapbar P-90 pickups, a single cutaway slab mahogany body, a mahogany neck with a satisfyingly hand-filling 50s Vintage profile, and a bound rosewood fretboard with simple acrylic dot position marker inlays.

The headstock is equipped with smooth-turning Vintage Deluxe tuners and a Graph Tech nut, ensuring stable tuning, and is adorned with the Gibson logo inlaid in mother-of-pearl, along with “Les Paul Special” silkscreened in gold. The strings are anchored at the other end with a wraparound bridge that is bolted directly into the mahogany body, delivering the exceptional sustain and rich tone that the Les Paul Special is famous for.
