Gibson Custom Les Paul Axcess Custom Figured Top, Bengal Burst #CS502759 Overview
The Gibson Custom Les Paul Axcess Custom Figured Top takes the legendary Les Paul design and reworks it for the modern player. Crafted by the Gibson Custom Shop, this Bengal Burst beauty pairs timeless style with player-focused refinements and premium tonewoods. A solid mahogany body and two-piece figured maple top give warmth, bite, and endless sustain, while the contoured heel and body carve make upper-fret access smooth and natural. The SlimTaper C-profile neck and ebony fingerboard feel fast and responsive, inviting expressive bends and fluid lead lines.
Powered by a 490R neck and 498T bridge humbucker, this Les Paul balances creamy midrange with crisp highs and strong output. Both pickups feature push-pull coil-splitting for single-coil sparkle on demand, adding huge versatility to its powerful core tone. Gold-plated hardware, multi-ply binding, and block inlays complete the luxurious aesthetic, while a Custom Shop hardshell case and Certificate of Authenticity remind you this is no ordinary Les Paul. The Axcess Custom is proof that classic design can still evolve without losing its soul.
