Gibson pairs up with Adam Jones of TOOL fame to release the Adam Jones 1979 Les Paul Custom VOS, a precise replication of the world-renowned guitarists trusty axe. Jones' original '79 Silverburst LP Custom has been his tool (excuse the pun) for crafting some of the most creative, boundary-pushing soundscapes of the '90s and early '00s, and his signature Gibson model seeks to recreate that look and feel, with a stunning Antique Silverburst VOS finish, a surprising pickup combo of a reverse-mounted Custombucker and Seymour Duncan DDJ, and a specially designed headstock graphic.
Gibson's Take:
Adam Jones is one of rock's most talented and sonically innovative guitarists, from multi-platinum selling and multiple Grammy Award winning band Tool. This limited-edition Gibson Custom Shop model recreates Adam's #1 guitar - his prized original Silverburst 1979 Gibson Les Paul Custom. Finished in Antique Silverburst VOS, the graphic on the rear of the headstock was designed by Adam Jones, and a replica of his headstock mirror is included in the custom Adam Jones hardshell case. These guitars were hand-made by the expert luthiers and craftspeople of the Gibson Custom Shop as part of a very special run.
