Gibson Custom Shop Historic Collection ’54 Les Paul Reissue 2014 – Oxblood

Gibson Custom Shop “Historic Collection 1954 Les Paul Reissue Oxblood” – A Special Find from 2014!

We have a used Gibson Custom Shop “Historic Collection 1954 Les Paul Reissue Oxblood” in stock. According to the serial number, it was likely made in 2014. The 1954 Les Paul originally featured a Goldtop finish and P-90 pickups, but this model comes with a unique “Oxblood” color—named for its dark, blood-like appearance, which can look black or brown depending on the angle—and it’s equipped with humbuckers.

It’s unmistakably inspired by Jeff Beck. This guitar closely resembles the one made famous by Beck on the cover of his iconic 1975 album “Blow By Blow.” Even the tuners are Schaller, and there are no signs of replacement, suggesting they came standard. The pickups originally had covers, but, just like Beck’s, they have been removed to match his style.

Gibson has released official Jeff Beck models with the Oxblood finish, but this particular guitar doesn’t mention Beck in its certification, so it’s probably a model with a similar configuration to his ’54 Les Paul. Jeff Beck’s original ’54 Les Paul had its neck slightly shaved to create a thinner profile, but this reissue likely retains the original ’54 neck shape—meaning it’s fairly thick and round.

The neck joint features the deep joint construction, giving it a distinct tone compared to other Les Paul models. The pickups are ’57 Classic types with a vintage character, and when paired with the stop-bar tailpiece—a remaining feature from when this was still a ’54 Les Paul—it produces a sound that’s both vintage and tight.

This guitar is a must-have for Jeff Beck fans, but it’s also highly recommended for anyone looking for a top-notch Les Paul.
