1956 Gibson Les Paul Special

by Premier Guitar

Specials are remarkably versatile guitars, having been used by artists as diverse as Bob Marley, John Lennon, and Marc Bolan




This month we have a very clean 1956 Gibson Les Paul Special, shown here with the original alligator soft case and Gibsonette amp, in Johnny Thunders-approved TV Yellow finish. Originally intended as student instruments, Specials are remarkably versatile guitars, having been used by artists as diverse as Bob Marley, John Lennon, and Marc Bolan.
