There’s something raw and honest about a Les Paul Special—no frills, no flame tops, just pure tone and attitude—and this 2008 Gibson 1960 Les Paul Special in Ebony takes that ethos to heart. With its slab mahogany body, wraparound tailpiece, and a pair of snarling P-90s, it delivers everything from biting rhythm crunch to warm, dynamic lead tones with ease. The large ’60 neck carve is an unexpected but welcome twist—chunky in all the right places, offering a solid grip without getting in the way. 

Finished in a sleek, understated ebony, this one wears its simplicity like a badge of honor. It's the kind of guitar that doesn’t need to scream for attention—it earns it the moment you plug in. Whether you're chasing vintage punk, garage rock, or just want a no-nonsense tone machine, this Special has the feel, sound, and soul to get you there. Comes complete with its original Gibson case and a whole lot of attitude!
