im looking forward to buying one and i need to know how much i need to save
musiciansfriend.com has a bunch of Gibson custom shop LPs, all in the $3900 - $5000 range here:
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/navigation/gibson-custom-shop-guitars?N=100001+202996
I believe you can also custom order your own custom shop LP but again you’re looking at four to five thousand dollars at least. Good luck.

Here I go again with the metal song! Sorry if it’s becoming irritating, but I figured it was the best to show a direct comparison between my guitars and mods.
This video features my Epiphone Les Paul Custom Alpine, but it now has been fitted with DiMarzio humbuckers. A PAF Pro in the neck, and a Tone Zone on the bridge. I love these new pickups..awesome tone and the hum canceling is also great. My amp (Spider 112) doesn’t however do them justice. I’ve played it through my bandmates Triple Rectifier and is sound huge.
COMMENTS PLEASE!!!

Les Paul Collector Tom Wittrock tells the wonderful story how he bought his first Burst, a 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard, for $2000. Everybody called him “the crazy guy who paid $2000 for a used guitar”! In 1972 he met with Billy Gibbons and got infected by the Vintage “Burst” virus. Due to their beautiful sunburst finish, these rare guitars are referred to as “Bursts”. Prices for these Gibson Les Pauls exceed $ 500.000 Enjoy the beauty of “Curly” in close-up shots. Extremely rare interview with the man who knows them all.

This medium weight Les Paul Custom weighs 10.70 lbs. and has a solid mahogany body with a slightly arched top. One-piece mahogany neck with a nice medium profile, a comfortable nut width of just under 1 11/16 inches and a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches. Ebony fretboard with 22 original thin frets and inlaid pearl block position markers. The top of the guitar has seven-ply binding, the back of the guitar has five-ply binding, the headstock has five-ply binding, and the fretboard has single white binding. Headstock with inlaid pearl “Gibson” logo and five-piece pearl split-diamond inlay. Two-layer (black on white) truss-rod cover with “Les Paul Custom” engraved in white. Serial Individual Grover Roto-Matic tuners with half-moon metal buttons. The serial number (”010513″) is inked in yellow on the back of the headstock. Three really hot PAF (double-black) humbucking pickups with very strong outputs of 8.16k, 8.14k, and 7.76k. Five-layer (black/white/black/white/black) plastic pickguard. Four controls (two volume, two tone) on lower treble bout plus three-way selector switch on upper bass bout. Black plastic bell-shaped “Bell” knobs. ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic non-retainer bridge with metal saddles and separate stud tailpiece. All hardware gold-plated.The potentiometers are all stamped: “134 6043″ (Centralab October 1960). There is some very light belt buckle scarring on the back of the guitar (nothing down to the wood), a small piece of binding (1/2 inch) is missing from the edge of the headstock just above the “G” tuner. There are a couple of surface chips on the edges of the guitar, the most significant being on the treble-horn where there is also a small (3/4 inch) cut. A few tiny surface marks on the front of the guitar, and some very minor tarnishing to the gold-plated hardware. The original frets show little-to-medium wear. That all said, this totally original ‘60 Custom — with a neck and a sound to die for — is certainly one of the finest that we have ever seen. At just over ten-and-a-half pounds It is on the medium-to-heavy side for a Custom - but the extra weight shows most positively in the sound. This is an amazing one-owner guitar in exceptionally fine (9.00) condition and this is the first time that it is being offered for sale. Housed in its original (very worn) Gibson black pebble-grain “black beauty” hardshell case with orange plush lining (7.50).
