The 1992 Gibson Les Paul Custom in Wine Red is an instrument with a bold character and unmistakable elegance, representing one of the most highly regarded eras of Gibson’s 1990s production. The refined Wine Red finish accentuates the Les Paul Custom’s classic lines, creating a deep, sophisticated look that shifts noticeably depending on the lighting. Its construction adheres to the model's tradition, featuring a solid body with a mahogany back and maple top, all finished in nitrocellulose. The mahogany neck—also featuring a nitro finish—boasts a comfortable, substantial "Medium C" profile, offering a solid feel in the hand without being overly bulky. The ebony fretboard—a hallmark of the Les Paul Custom—features a 12" radius, 22 medium-jumbo frets, and a Corian nut. Ebony provides a particularly immediate response, contributing to the defined attack and precise feel characteristic of this model. The electronics consist of a pair of Gibson 498 humbuckers—a 498T at the bridge and a 498R at the neck—controlled by the classic three-way selector switch. The result is a powerful, full-bodied sound rich in sustain, capable of shifting from the warm, enveloping tones of the neck pickup to the punchy, aggressive sounds of the bridge pickup, all while maintaining the authoritative presence typical of a Les Paul Custom. Rounding out the configuration is the traditional Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge with Stop Bar tailpiece—a reliable setup that ensures stability, sustain, and precise intonation adjustment. This is an early-1990s Les Paul Custom boasting extraordinary stage presence and all the features that have made this model one of the most iconic instruments in Gibson's history. It is a particularly compelling find for musicians seeking the classic Les Paul Custom sound, as well as for collectors looking to add a vintage, collectible Gibson to a significant collection.
