A ’76 Les Paul Deluxe Reissue with a bold color twist The Gibson Custom 1976 Les Paul™ Deluxe Reissue, VOS, Red Sparkle, brings back into the spotlight one of the most distinctive eras of Les Paul craftsmanship, with exceptional detail and unmistakable 70s character. As part of the Gibson Custom Limited Edition Collection, a showcase of limited-run guitars inspired by standout Made to Measure orders and the expertise of the Nashville Custom Shop artisans, this reissue captures the personality, punch, and visual flair that made the mid 70s Deluxe a studio and stage favorite. This edition features the classic mahogany and maple sandwich body construction of the period, paired with a carved maple top and finished in a vibrant VOS Red Sparkle nitrocellulose lacquer. The result is a solidbody Les Paul with lively attack, enhanced clarity, and the unmistakable midrange definition players associate with the Deluxe of this era. Its single ply top binding and cream appointments complete the authentic vintage aesthetic. A three-piece maple neck with the Authentic 1976 profile delivers the unmistakable feel of a 70s instrument. It’s comfortable, fast, and sturdy. It’s topped with a rosewood fretboard sporting aged pearloid trapezoid inlays, reissue medium jumbo frets, a 12 inch radius, and single ply binding. With a traditional 24.75 inch scale length and a period-correct nylon nut, this neck provides the snap and stability that became synonymous with the Les Paul Deluxe during its rise to prominence. The mini humbucker™ pickup set is the defining voice of this reissue. They are bright, articulate, and punchy, with a focused low end and shimmering high end clarity. These pickups give the 1976 Deluxe its signature ability to cut through a mix while maintaining exceptional dynamic control. Two volume and two tone controls, along with a three-way toggle, offer expressive versatility for clean chime, warm overdrive, or full throttle rock tones. Chrome hardware reinforces the 70s authenticity, including the ABR 1 Tune O Matic™ bridge, Stop Bar tailpiece, Kluson® Deluxe tuners, and chrome pickup covers. Gold Top Hat knobs with silver inserts serve as a finishing touch. Every detail is crafted with the care and precision for which the luthiers of Gibson Custom are renowned, and each instrument includes a Certificate of Authenticity along with a Lifton™ reissue hardshell case. The 1976 Les Paul Deluxe Reissue, VOS, Red Sparkle, stands as a beautifully realized tribute to one of the most distinctive chapters in Les Paul history—bold, expressive, and unmistakably Gibson Custom.
