The Gibson Modern Les Paul Axcess Custom Floyd Rose Ebony Limited Edition from the Custom Shop in Nashville, Tennesse is a modern interpretation of the legendary Singlecut design and convinces with a mercilessly good playing comfort. The classic mahogany body has comfortable contours, while the mahogany neck with "Slim C" profile and contoured neck foot can be played unhindered in all positions. In addition, Gibson 496R and 498T humbuckers provide modern sounds on the amplifier. Last but not least, this Les Paul offers a Floyd Rose original tremolo for bloodcurdling divebombs.
The Gibson Modern Les Paul Axcess Custom convinces with first-class playing comfort that puts the classic Singlecut design into one dimension. The mahogany body not only has a slimmer frame width, but also, thanks to the "Comfort-Carve Belly Scarf" on the back, nestles against the player. The weight relief also makes this Les Paul surprisingly light, so that nothing stands in the way of long gigs. The fast "Slim C" profile and the fluently designed "Contoured Axcess Heel" at the base of the neck ensure unimpeded playability in all positions of the Richlite fingerboard.
The Gibson Modern Les Paul Axcess Custom Floyd Rose Ebony Limited Edition also impresses with a versatile sound that feels at home in almost every musical style. A Gibson 498T humbucker, a hot Alnico V aggregate that delivers a fat, center-stressed sound for burning rock riffs and hot solo licks, sits at the bridge. The ceramic magnet-equipped Gibson 496R humbucker on the neck delivers a warm, yet assertive and defined sound with endless sustain. Push/pull switches in the tone controls allow both pickups to be split over them, so that authentic single coil sounds are also part of the Gibson Les Paul Modern Custom Axcess repertoire.
Another rarity on a singlecut design is the Floyd Rose Original tremolo of the Gibson Les Paul Modern Axcess Custom. With its double locking construction, it keeps the mood absolutely safe even after the fiercest Divebombs and Squeals, so that nothing stands in the way of unrestrained use of the Whammy Bar. The headstock is also equipped with Grover Rotomatic tuners with chic Keystone grand pianos, which offer precise and smooth running.
