Here is a 2007 Gibson Les Paul Classic Antique Zebrawood, a limited edition model from Gibson’s Nashville production that blends vintage-inspired design with subtle modern refinements. Part of the “Guitar of the Week” series (Week #19), only 400 units were produced worldwide, making this a rare and visually distinctive take on the classic Les Paul platform.
This example features a chambered mahogany body with a carved Zebrawood top, offering a unique aesthetic that stands apart from traditional maple-topped Les Pauls. The natural finish highlights the bold, striped grain of the Zebrawood, giving the guitar a boutique, almost Custom Shop-like visual appeal while maintaining classic Gibson styling with cream binding and traditional appointments.
The neck is a comfortable ’60s slim taper profile paired with a rosewood fingerboard and trapezoid inlays, delivering a fast, smooth playing experience without sacrificing familiarity. The chambered construction contributes to a lighter overall feel and enhanced resonance, making it well balanced and comfortable for extended playing sessions.
Equipped with Gibson ’57 Classic humbuckers, the guitar delivers a warm, articulate PAF-style voice with clear highs, rich mids, and a full, controlled low end. The chambered body adds a slightly more open and airy response, while still retaining the sustain and depth expected from a Les Paul. It responds well to dynamics, working equally well for clean passages and driven tones.
Condition is excellent, showing only very light signs of use. It presents as a well cared for instrument that is ready for stage, studio, or collection.
