The 1972 Gibson Les Paul Custom in Cherry Sunburst with T‑Top black label pickups reflects Gibson's early‑’70s Custom specification: set mahogany neck and mahogany body (some examples carry a thin maple cap), bound ebony fingerboard with block inlays, multi‑ply binding on body and headstock, and the split‑diamond headstock inlay. Hardware is typically nickel‑plated on many 1972 Customs, and the guitar uses a Tune‑o‑Matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece. Controls follow standard Les Paul wiring—two volume, two tone knobs and a three‑way pickup selector—and the scale length is 24.75". The Cherry Sunburst finish shows the era’s color on a Custom trim package and the instrument is supplied with its original Gibson hardshell case.

This example is fitted with Gibson T‑Top black label humbuckers in the neck and bridge. T‑Top pickups from the early 1970s are known for a slightly cleaner, more balanced output compared with late‑’60s PAFs, offering defined mids and a crisp top end that suit both clean and overdriven tones. Typical specs for a 1972 Les Paul Custom: set‑neck construction, 24.75" scale, bound ebony fingerboard with block inlays, nut width around 1.695" (≈43 mm), Tune‑o‑Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece, dual humbuckers (T‑Tops in this case), and original hardshell case included.
