The\nsingle cutaway version was retired in 1961 in favor of a double-cutaway design, which would later evolve\ninto the SG™ Custom. It wasn’t until 1968 that the original silhouette made its comeback. In the 1970s,\nproduction shifted from Kalamazoo to Nashville, bringing with it a series of updates, including a threepiece maple top replacing the all-mahogany body, and the addition of a maple neck. These 70s-era\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLes Paul Customs have since become some of the most sought-after vintage guitars on the market.\nNow, for the first time in two decades, Gibson is proud to reintroduce the Les Paul Custom 70s. This\nmodel faithfully captures the spirit of the era, featuring a mahogany body with a three-piece maple top, 5-\nply top binding, and 3-ply back binding. The maple neck sports a 70s-style profile with a volute and is\npaired with a bound ebony fretboard, 22 medium jumbo frets, and mother-of-pearl block inlays. The\nheadstock, also bound, showcases the iconic Custom Split Diamond inlay—an elegant detail first seen on\nthe Gibson Super 400.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGold hardware completes the vintage aesthetic, including an aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge,\nStop Bar tailpiece, and Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with Keystone buttons for dependable tuning.\nAuthentic touches abound, from Posi-Lok™ strap locks and a 5-ply pickguard to Witch Hat knobs true to\nthe decade. Under the hood, a pair of Calibrated T-Type humbuckers™ delivers era-accurate tone, with\nhand-wired electronics and Orange Drop® capacitors ensuring rich, expressive sound.\nAvailable in four stunning gloss nitrocellulose finishes—Ebony, Tobacco Burst, Wine Red, and\nButtercream Top—each Les Paul Custom 70s comes housed in a protective hardshell case, ready for the\nroad or the studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Les Paul Custom is back—and it’s ready to make history all over again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Les Paul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop: Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBinding: Multi-ply Top, Back, and Headstock; Single Ply Fretboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Profile: 70s, With Volute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 1.695” \/ 43.053 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 24.75” \/ 628.65 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Frets: 22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut: Graph Tech\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlay: Mother of Pearl Block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTailpiece: Aluminum Stop Bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Grover Rotomatic with Keystone Button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: Calibrated T-Type Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: Calibrated T-Type Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone; Hand-wired with Orange Drop Capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiscellaneous\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase: Hardshell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: Gibson\u003cbr\u003eModel: LPCU700WRGH1\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I808470-N-0-WHXD\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 711106164137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
