Last year Gibson Custom resurrected this beloved double-cut incarnation of the Les Paul Special guitar in classic TV colors while adding a new one, TV Black Gold. Now after popular demand -- TV Black Silver! The silver doghair grain of the mahogany pairs perfectly with the nickel hardware and black appointments. And like any of our Historic Double Cut Les Paul Specials, this guitar is extremely well-balanced, fast-playing and full of tone delivered by a blistering set of Custom P-90 pickups and all-solid mahogany construction.
Today's Gibson electric guitars represent the history as well as the future of the electric guitar. The models whose designs have become classics-the ES-175, ES-335, Flying V, Explorer, Firebird, SGs and Les Pauls-are a testament to Gibson's wide appeal, spanning more than four decades of music styles. Gibson's close relationship with musicians is manifest in endorsement models from King, Atkins and jazz greats Howard Roberts and Herb Ellis, plus new Les Pauls made to the personal specifications of rock stars Jimmy Page and Joe Perry. In 1994, Gibson's Centennial year, the new Nighthawk model won an industry award for design, setting the stage for a second hundred years of Gibson quality and innovation.
