Gibson Custom Adam Jones 1979 Les Paul Custom VOS

Adam Jones is widely regarded as one of rock music's most influential and enigmatic guitar players. The powerhouse behind heavyweight prog titans Tool, Adam Jones brings an exceptional technical ability and sonic innovation to the table. Hot on the heels of the greatly anticipated new Tool album, Gibson have released a limited edition Custom Shop version of Adam's number 1 guitar, his 1979 Silverburst Les Paul Custom.

This Gibson '79 Adam Jones Les Paul Custom is the ultimate way to experience what makes the Les Paul so special. With a solid Mahogany body and a 3-peice Maple Top, the Custom is finished in stunning Silverburst VOS with chrome hardware. I think it's fair to say it's a real eye catcher. Hand crafted by the expert luthiers at the Gibson Custom Shop, these extra special guitars are a real statement and are certainly more than just a signature instrument, they offer an explosion of mega tone, awesome playability and a hypnotic aesthetic that only Gibson can deliver.

The Maple neck boasts a 24.75" scale length, an Ebony fingerboard with Mother of Pearl block inlays; it feels perfectly balanced and poised, just as a Les Paul should. With the same medium C shape neck profile as the original, it offers a great base for both monstrous riffs and slick lead lines.

Such an incredible guitar needs a pickup pairing capable of the wide range of tones a player like Adam Jones requires. Loaded with a reverse mounted Custombucker at the neck and a Seymour Duncan custom wound DDJ at the bridge, you have everything you need to replicate that crushing Tool tone!

A real powerhouse, this Gibson Les Paul Custom comes complete with custom silverburst Gibson hardcase for great protection at home and on the road.
