Among the younger generations of bluesmen, Joe Bonamassa stands out as an undisputed leader. His eclectic style ranges from the original acoustic Delta blues to high voltage blues rock of the modern age. Among myriad of guitars, Les Paul stands out as Joe`s favorite, both on stage and in studio. Thus far, Epiphone and Gibson have released several Joe Bonamassa signature models, some limited runs, some standard models, all thoroughbred blues machines. New Les Paul Joe Bonamassa in Tomato Soup Burst by Gibson USA is a special limited run treat reserved for Joe`s biggest fans and guitar collectors. It comes with a classic Les Paul base – a single cut body made of mahogany base (vintage 9-hole weight relief) with AAA class flamed maple top and one-piece mahogany neck with slim taper profile. 22-fret rosewood fingerboard covers the neck. It features medium jumbo frets, trapezoid inlays, 1.695″ nylon nut and 12″ radius. Custom-made Seymour Duncan humbuckers are found in both the lead and rhythm positions. They guarantee a killer recreation of Joe`s signature tone. Two-piece bridge, vintage Keystone tuners and Joe`s custom controls unit complete the list of major specs. Despite a price tag of $3,999, this 150-piece limited run is expected to go like hot cakes.
