Review & Description
The Gibson Les Paul Custom Axcess with Floyd Rose electric guitar carries all the elegant styling, fluid body lines, and rocking attitude of a classic Les Paul Standard guitar from the golden era of 1958 to '60 now in a sleek Silver Burst finish. The Gibson Les Paul Custom Axcess reveals a handful of upgrades upon closer examinationall modifications made in the name of maximum playability and versatility.
