Gibson Custom Shop Dealer Select Les Paul Figured Red Widow #CS600770

The Gibson Custom Shop Dealer Select Les Paul Custom Red Widow is the kind of instrument that stops conversations the moment the case opens. Wrapped in an intoxicating crimson burst over a hand-selected 2-piece AAA figured maple top, this Les Paul Custom radiates elegance, menace, and unmistakable Custom Shop authority. Every ripple in the maple dances beneath the finish like glowing embers beneath black silk, giving the Red Widow its hauntingly beautiful identity.

Built upon the legendary Les Paul Custom platform, this guitar pairs a weight-relieved solid mahogany body with a mahogany neck for the rich sustain, warmth, and resonance that define the model’s iconic voice. The one-piece ebony fingerboard adds a luxurious snap and clarity under your fingertips, while mother-of-pearl block inlays shimmer against the deep black surface with timeless sophistication. From the split diamond headstock inlay to the gold Gibson Custom Shop decal on the rear of the headstock, every detail reflects uncompromising craftsmanship.

The Les Paul Custom Modern Medium C neck carve feels immediately familiar, substantial without excess and fast without sacrificing character. It invites fluid lead work, articulate rhythm playing, and effortless expression across all 22 Jescar reissue frets. Gold hardware throughout adds a regal contrast against the dark appointments, from the Tune-O-Matic bridge and stop bar tailpiece to the Grover kidney-button tuners that hold tuning stability with absolute confidence.

Tonally, the Red Widow delivers everything players expect from a high-end Les Paul Custom and more. The Gibson 490R neck pickup produces velvety warmth and vocal sustain, while the 490T bridge pickup unleashes focused midrange punch, harmonic bite, and searing classic rock authority. Whether drenched in gain or played clean and articulate, this guitar responds with depth, nuance, and unmistakable Gibson character. Independent volume and tone controls, paired with a 3-way selector, provide a vast tonal palette ready for the studio, stage, or collector’s vault.

Accented with elegant 7-ply top binding, 5-ply back binding, black speed knobs, and the iconic Les Paul Custom aesthetic, the Red Widow feels both vintage-inspired and uniquely modern. At 10 lbs 1 oz, it carries the reassuring heft of a serious instrument while remaining balanced and resonant thanks to thoughtful weight relief.

Complete with its certificate of authenticity and hardshell case, the Gibson Custom Shop Dealer Select Les Paul Custom Red Widow is more than a guitar. It is a statement piece. A rare fusion of beauty, power, and prestige crafted for players who demand an instrument as visually captivating as it is sonically unforgettable.
