The mid-1970s marked a bold new chapter in the evolution of the Les Paul, blending the timeless design of Gibson's most iconic electric guitar with the distinctive styling and sonic personality of the era. Available now at Haggerty's Music, the Gibson Custom Shop Limited Edition 1976 Les Paul Deluxe Reissue faithfully revives one of the most unique production models ever to wear the Les Paul name. As part of Gibson Custom's Limited Edition Collection, this instrument draws inspiration from highly sought-after Made to Measure creations and the expertise of the master luthiers in Nashville, delivering a remarkably authentic recreation of one of the defining guitars of the 1970s.

What immediately sets this Limited Edition apart is its stunning Red Sparkle VOS finish, perfectly capturing the vibrant stage presence that defined the decade while retaining the understated elegance of Gibson's Vintage Original Spec treatment. The mahogany and maple sandwich body construction, paired with a carved maple top and finished in thin nitrocellulose lacquer, delivers the lively attack, focused midrange, and exceptional sustain that made the Les Paul Deluxe a favorite among countless touring and recording musicians. Every detail, from the cream plastics and chrome hardware to the gold Top Hat knobs with silver inserts, faithfully reflects the aesthetic that made these guitars instantly recognizable.

The three-piece maple neck carved to the Authentic 1976 profile offers the substantial feel and rock-solid stability that players associate with this era of Gibson production. A bound rosewood fingerboard with aged pearloid trapezoid inlays, medium jumbo reissue frets, and a long neck tenon create an instrument that feels every bit as inspiring acoustically as it does plugged in. Whether you're digging into classic rock riffs, blues leads, country licks, or expressive melodic passages, this Les Paul responds with remarkable resonance and effortless playability.

At the heart of the instrument is its defining feature: a matched pair of Gibson mini humbuckers. Brighter and more focused than traditional full-sized humbuckers, they deliver crisp articulation, tight bass response, shimmering highs, and exceptional note separation while retaining the warmth and power expected from a Les Paul. From sparkling clean tones to crunchy classic rock rhythms and singing lead work, this guitar excels in virtually any musical setting. Complete with its Certificate of Authenticity and Custom Shop Lifton-style hardshell case, this Limited Edition 1976 Les Paul Deluxe Reissue is a remarkable tribute to one of Gibson's most distinctive and collectible eras.
