Explanation
“With the overwhelming presence and primal drive of Neil Young’s legendary guitar Old Black, and the desire to get that feral drive tone,” but custom shops that recreated the real thing were extremely expensive and hard to come by, and compromises forced the result into something made without any flexibility—so why not look for an Old Black-style spec with immediate playing power?
The nickname Old Black for Neil Young’s 1953 Goldtop, refinished in black, with a P-90 in the front, a mini humbucker in the rear, and assembled with Bigsby and mirror pickguard. The presence that has shaken countless rock arenas with thunderous volume and embodied the rebellious spirit of rock is the dream of every guitarist. However, to modify a standard Les Paul to this degree requires enormous passion and cost, and the opportunity to encounter a finely crafted modified individual in the market is exceedingly rare.
This 1995 Gibson Les Paul Standard Old Black Style Mod. thoroughly customizes the iconic model, which boasts the reliable quality of 90s Gibson, into the ultimate modified instrument that embodies the romance of a Neil Young freak and the finesse of skilled custom work. From iconic details to practical sound functionality, every aspect of its meticulous commitment has been condensed into it.
Like the original Old Black, the entire body is finished in a gorgeous black finish and assembled with an impressive mirror pickguard. The realistic signs of use, such as scratches and wear, bring out the dignity of a well-played vintage-like instrument.
The front is fitted with a P-90 that produces a thick, lively attack, while the rear is fitted with a mini humbucker that boasts sharp, cutting definition. From Neil Young’s signature roaring, explosive crunch to sweet distortion, it delivers a truly one-of-a-kind sound.
A mini switch has been added to the center controls, and coil-tap functionality is included! More nuanced and diverse tone-making is possible than with the conventional 3-way selector alone.
Equipped with a Bigsby arm that adds arm articulation and a classical sense of weight. It is not merely a parts swap; the builder’s deep commitment and careful craftsmanship shine through.
Combining a well-regarded 1995 Les Paul Standard for its wood quality and construction with Bass, this is the ultimate custom instrument built without a single compromise. Of course it is a must for Neil Young fans, but for guitarists who want to unleash a rugged, wild Les Paul that stands out on stage and does not resemble anyone else’s, this is a once-in-a-lifetime fateful encounter.
The moment you plug into an amp, the soul of rock that breaks free from the wilderness is unleashed. Please take a look at this supreme Old Black style, infused with passion down to the smallest detail.
