Gibson Adam Jones Les Paul Standard Guitar, Silverburst with Case
When Tool's Adam Jones needs to craft those haunting, heavy riffs that define progressive metal, he turns to his signature Gibson Adam Jones Les Paul Standard in stunning Silverburst finish. This limited-edition collaboration between Gibson USA and one of rock's most visionary guitarists delivers the perfect marriage of classic Les Paul DNA and modern sonic brutality.
Tailored to Adam Jones Specifics
The Adam Jones Les Paul Standard is a meticulously crafted instrument designed to channel the complex, atmospheric soundscapes that have made Tool a legendary force in metal.
Antique Silverburst Finish: The stunning metallic burst finish catches stage lights like liquid mercury, giving you a visual presence that matches the guitar's sonic impact.
Ebony Fretboard with Mother of Pearl Trapezoid Inlays: The dense ebony provides lightning-fast playability while the elegant inlays add classic Gibson sophistication to this modern beast.
Dual High-Output Pickup Configuration: A chrome-covered BurstBucker 1 in the neck position delivers warm, articulate leads, while the uncovered DC High-Gain bridge humbucker provides the aggressive bite needed for heavy rhythms.
Enhanced Playability and Sonic Expression
This isn't your grandfather's Les Paul (unless your grandfather was in a prog-metal band). Gibson loaded this signature model with modern appointments that enhance both playability and tonal versatility.
Hand-Wired Orange Drop Capacitors: These premium capacitors preserve the guitar's natural frequency response, ensuring every subtle dynamic shift in your playing translates into pure sonic expression.
Grover Rotomatic Tuners: Contemporary-style buttons and precise gear ratios keep you locked in tune through the most aggressive playing styles and dramatic string bends.
Modern Weight Relief: Strategic body chambering reduces overall weight without sacrificing sustain, making those longer practice sessions and gigs more comfortable.
Artist Signature Details and Protection
The personal touches make this guitar a true collector's piece, while practical considerations ensure it stays stage-ready for years to come.
Adam Jones Signature: His autograph graces the truss rod cover, marking this as an authentic piece of Tool history.
Custom Headstock Artwork: Jones' original artwork adorns the back of the headstock, adding a unique visual element designed by the artist himself.
Modern Hardshell Case Included: Your investment stays protected whether you're heading to the studio, hitting the road, or storing it between creative sessions.
The Gibson Adam Jones Les Paul Standard represents more than just a signature guitar — it's a gateway to the sonic territories that have inspired countless metal musicians. This limited-edition collaboration captures the essence of Tool's intricate, powerful sound in an instrument built to Gibson's legendary standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Jones's collaboration produced something genuinely different from the typical signature model. It’s darker sounding, visually striking, and rooted in a very specific tonal philosophy tied to his work with Tool. It appeals to players who want a Les Paul with a heavier identity.
The Seymour Duncan Distortion in the bridge and the Gibson '57 Classic in the neck are a big part of the sonic character, but the mahogany body and maple top do a lot of heavy lifting in the low-mids. Both elements work together to produce that thick, sustain-heavy voice.
Yes, Gibson's finishes are built to hold up under regular use, and the silverburst on the Adam Jones model is applied with the same care as any standard Gibson. Some players actually welcome the natural wear that develops over years of playing.
The neck pickup's '57 Classic humbucker has a warm, vocal quality that translates well to blues and even lighter jazz tones. It's a rock guitar at heart, but its tonal range is broader than its reputation suggests.
It's in line with a traditional Les Paul build with a mahogany body and maple cap, so expect a full, substantial feel. Players used to lighter guitars will notice it, but fans of the classic Les Paul heft will feel right at home.
