Gibson Custom Shop LPC vs Gibson LPC ??

[kilman]

Hey guys, I recently bought a new Gibson Custom Shop LPC.
I was wondering is there any difference between the Custom Shop LPC´s and the regular LPC´s?
Or is it basically the same guitar ?

Thanks

Yes according to ther forums it´s the same model.
The guitar is on it´s way from the US.

Thanks!

All Customs are Custom Shop guitars.

There's two types of Customs. A regular Custom and a historic Custom. Many differences between the two. Go to gibsoncustom.com and you can see the differences.

Since the custom shops inception they made all the Les Paul Custom's there. The classic custom's are USA models.

Hi,

This is my first post.

i own a custom that is not a custom shop model, it is a 98 LPC.

When Gibson changed up the standard models around 2001 or 2002 is when the customs moved to the custom shop, before that they were made alongside the standard models, basically it's still a custom (ebony board block inlays etc), but it has a short tenon like the regular standards.

Obviously they aren't as expensive on the used market.
