Left Handed Black Beauty Les Paul Custom Style Guitar

The Left Handed Black Beauty Les Paul Custom Style Guitar combines one of the most iconic LP Custom-inspired colour schemes with a dedicated left-handed configuration. Finished in deep gloss black and complemented by gold hardware, dual gold-covered humbuckers and elaborate Custom-style binding, it delivers the unmistakable Black Beauty aesthetic in a format designed for left-handed players.

The classic single-cutaway body is paired with a black pickguard, large block fingerboard inlays and traditional four-control electronics. Gold hardware provides a dramatic contrast against the black finish, extending across the pickups, bridge, tailpiece and tuning machines.

For left-handed players looking for the luxurious appearance of a traditional Black Beauty-style guitar, this model offers a particularly distinctive alternative to more common Standard-style LP designs.

Classic Black Beauty Styling

The defining feature of this guitar is the timeless black-and-gold Black Beauty aesthetic.

A deep gloss black finish covers the single-cutaway body, providing a dramatic background for the gold hardware and contrasting decorative binding.

It's one of the most recognisable Les Paul Custom-inspired combinations, giving the guitar an elegant appearance without relying on elaborate graphics or unusual colours.

Dedicated Left-Handed Design

Unlike simply restringing a conventional guitar in reverse, this model features a left-handed body and control layout.

The cutaway, controls, selector switch and other components are arranged appropriately for a left-handed instrument, creating the familiar LP layout in mirrored form.

For left-handed guitarists who often have a much smaller choice of finishes and designs, this makes the guitar especially appealing.

Dual Gold-Covered Humbuckers

Two gold-covered humbuckers provide the classic dual-pickup HH configuration.

Their polished gold covers stand out prominently against the black body and match the other hardware throughout the guitar.

The traditional three-way selector allows the player to choose between the neck humbucker, both pickups together or the bridge humbucker.

Gold Tune-o-Matic-Style Bridge & Tailpiece

The guitar features a gold Tune-o-matic-style bridge and matching stopbar tailpiece.

This maintains the familiar fixed-bridge arrangement associated with traditional Les Paul-style guitars while continuing the Black Beauty colour scheme.

Gold appointments are used consistently rather than just on the pickups, helping give the guitar a cohesive Custom-inspired appearance.

Black Pickguard

A traditional black pickguard sits underneath the pickups.

Using black rather than a contrasting cream guard allows it to blend almost seamlessly into the body, keeping the gold hardware as the main visual contrast.

The result is a particularly clean black-and-gold aesthetic.

Four-Control LP Layout

Four black control knobs provide the traditional two-volume and two-tone configuration.

This allows separate adjustment of the neck and bridge humbuckers while retaining the familiar functionality associated with classic LP-style guitars.

The black knobs are deliberately understated against the gloss body and don't distract from the gold hardware.

Custom-Style Binding

Decorative light-coloured multi-line-style binding follows the perimeter of the body and provides another characteristic Les Paul Custom-inspired detail.

Binding also runs along the edges of the fingerboard, giving the neck a more elaborate appearance than a simpler Standard-style design.

Against the black finish, the lighter binding creates a particularly strong and elegant outline.

Dark Fingerboard with Large Block Inlays

The dark fingerboard features prominent large block-style position inlays.

These provide another visual connection with classic Custom-style guitars and stand out clearly against the darker fingerboard.

Combined with the neck binding and black finish, the large inlays help maintain the more decorative Black Beauty appearance all the way along the instrument.

Gold Tuning Machines

The gold hardware theme continues at the headstock with matching gold-coloured tuning machines.

This means the black-and-gold aesthetic runs from the tuners through to the pickups, bridge and tailpiece rather than being limited to the body.

It's an important detail on a guitar whose visual identity is so strongly based around its hardware and finish combination.

A Black Beauty for Left-Handed Players

The strongest selling point of this model is the combination of two very specific characteristics.

It's not simply another black Les Paul-style guitar: it's a left-handed Les Paul Custom-inspired Black Beauty.

That distinction gives the guitar a much clearer purpose for left-handed players searching for the traditional black-and-gold Custom aesthetic without having to settle for a more generic left-handed LP design.

Why You'll Love It
