The Grand Return of an Exceptional Les Paul
The Les Paul Supreme marks the comeback of an iconic model positioned at the top of the Gibson lineup. While respecting the Les Paul DNA, this version modernizes the concept: new mother-of-pearl headstock inlays inspired by a 1940s motif, meticulous craftsmanship, and revised ergonomics to meet the demands of today's guitarists.
For Whom and Which Styles?
Designed for intermediate to expert musicians, the Les Paul Supreme excels in rock, hard rock, and blues, while adapting well to pop and fusion. The coil-tap, phase, and "Pure Bypass" options broaden the palette: tight and clear sounds for rhythm parts, bite and sustain for solos, and a more direct, punchy mode to cut through the mix on stage and in the studio.
Sound
The mahogany/maple combination offers the classic Les Paul balance: dense lows, singing mids, and precise highs. The "Ultra-Modern" body chambering preserves resonance while enhancing comfort. On the pickups side, the Burstbucker Pro at the neck delivers articulate warmth and smooth attack, while the Burstbucker Pro+ at the bridge provides higher output and more bite. The push/pull pots enable coil-tap for finer textures, phase adjustment for scooped tones, and "Pure Bypass" switching for a more direct and dynamic output. The result: a guitar with strong sustain, capable of moving from vintage crunch to modern lead with great control.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the best out of this Les Paul: a quality 6.35 mm instrument cable, a sturdy strap, a stable stand, and a microfiber cloth for maintenance. A set of 6 nickel electric guitar strings with gauges 10-46 fits perfectly with this scale length and sonic universe. Hard case included.
