You are looking at a 2025 Gibson Les Paul Custom 3A Quilt Top finished in Cobra, a finish so self-assured it doesn’t bother explaining itself. It’s not green, not silver, not black — it’s Cobra, and if you’re asking what color that is, this guitar may already be judging you. The high-gloss top has a 3A quilt that ripples just enough to remind you that restraint is a luxury choice. No screaming flame. No desperation. Just quiet confidence and expensive taste.
At 8.2 lbs (chambered), this Custom has the perfect amount of authority — substantial enough to feel important, light enough to prove it doesn’t need to overcompensate. The rounded neck profile, measuring .885″ at the 1st fret and 1.000″ at the 12th, fills the hand in that effortless way that makes you wonder why other guitars even try. It’s immediately comfortable, instantly familiar, and subtly condescending to lesser necks. Plug it in and you get exactly what you expect from a Les Paul Custom: thick, articulate, polished tones that don’t ask permission and don’t apologize.
She’s 100% original and ready to rock, though frankly she’d also be perfectly happy being admired in silence.

Born June 23rd, 2025, straight from Gibson’s Custom Shop Made-to-Measure program — where “standard” isn’t part of the vocabulary. This guitar is in unplayed, mint condition with no play wear to report.
Includes the original Gibson Custom Shop case, case candy, and certificate of authenticity, all shown in the last photo — because paperwork matters when you’re operating at this level.
