Gibson Custom Shop Inspired By Peter Frampton Les Paul Special

Return to main Gibson Inspired By models page

Peter Frampton's 1958 Les Paul Junior served as the base inspiration for this truly customized Inspired By instrument that combines features from both the '58 Junior and the Gibson Custom Shop Peter Frampton Signature Les Paul Custom. Instead of the humbuckers used on the Les Paul Signature model, the Inspired By guitar has three independently wired single coil P-90s.
