    all of them have maple caps, except the 57 and 54 reissues (and other rarer 1954-1960 reissues) as well as the original 50s ones.

    The great guitar player James Dean Bradfield of the Manic Street Preachers’ relies heavily on his 1990’s Alpine White Gibson Custom Shop guitar, although he has modified the pickups on it several times.

    Quick fact check fact check. The 50’s custom bodies were made from a single piece of mahogany. Since the custom was reintroduced in 1968, it has had maple cap. 50’s reissues also have the all hog body construction, but the vast majority of customs, including today’s GOTD, have maple caps.

    • @thesmith1526
      @thesmith1526 2 года назад +1

      That guitar is curious.
      I had a 2003 black Custom and it didn’t have the custom shop stamp on the back of the neck, just a normal factory Les Paul stamped serial number. Maybe 2003 was a transitional year where they changed from the regular line to the faux “Custom Shop” serials.
      The case was identical however.
      The knobs on that Alpine White should be black and I’m not sure the truss rod cover is original either, nevertheless a beautiful guitar

    • @jbrent733
      @jbrent733 2 года назад

      @@thesmith1526 Indeed. The knobs and truss rod cover aren’t stock. The biggest flag of it having a maple cap is having a Nashville tune-o-matic.
      I don’t know many people who would change from an ABR-1 to a Nashville. I would never do that to my R9.
      I’ve had a LPC before, and it’s almost exactly like this one. They’re trying to copy that RR vibe, but there’s nothing like a real ‘70s LPC; my in-laws have an amazing one, and these white ones’ lacquer topcoat turn yellow easily.
