As its name implies, The Les Paul Black Beauty is the pinnacle of elegance in looks and tone. With its third Humbucking pickup in the middle position, this Custom is well-equipped for amazing delivery of both sound and expression. Whether it’s chime, sustain, bite or gain that you’re after the Les Paul has it all. This Black Beauty ups the ante in terms of stage presence, the original carried the seal of approval from the great man himself. An electric guitar with his signature look and sound.
Comfortable to Play
Although the addition of a 3rd humbucker pickup sets this apart from the traditional Les Pauls, the Black beauty retains the Mahogany body that gives its fullbodied, thick tone with that extra bit of versatility. A C-shaped mahogany neck and 12″ radius fingerboard manage to capture the vintage vibe and feel of the original ’50s guitars we’ve all grown to love.
The Ultimate Tuxedo Guitar
Referred to as the ‘Fretless Wonder’ in its heyday, the Les Paul Black Beauty was originally conceived as a more ‘sophisticated’ model in the LP lineup. The gold hardware appointments, block inlays and sleek Ebony finish ensure it wouldn’t look out of place next to a tuxedo on stage!
