Gibson 1968 Les Paul Custom

Today, we’ll look at my Gibson Custom Shop 1968 reissue Les Paul Custom guitar. This guitar was a “Made 2 Measure” one from Eddie’s Guitars. There were only 5 made and it’s really unique. This one checked off a whopping 16 items off the Bucket List! Of course, some of those were already checked off before, but we still had quite a few first-time checks to go through in this video.

The guitar features a quilted maple top, a custom “Nordic Blue” color, a Bigsby tailpiece and three ’68 Custom pickups. It sounds amazing and even plays better than anything I’ve ever tried. Even the finish is somehow different than all the others- it’s amazing and surprising to me that the most expensive one is the best. In my experience, it usually doesn’t work that way! You have to check this video out- it’s certainly a crown jewel in the collection!
