Gibson to re-make the 13 stolen Adam Jones signature Les Paul Customs
Every cloud has a silverburst lining
What a story. First, Gibson announced an exciting Adam Jones Les Paul Custom, that sold out in nanoseconds. Then a whole palette of 13 of these rare guitars was stolen. Imagine ordering your signed Adam Jones signature Les Paul to the tune of $9,999 from a limited edition – only to find out that your guitar has been nabbed. Now the American guitar giant has stated it will re-make the 13 missing guitars, so the customers won’t miss out. And the new guitars will also have a little extra feature to set them apart from the stolen instruments.
13 Stolen Adam Jones signature Les Paul Customs
“The 13” were stolen from the back of a truck while on their way to the store that had ordered them. Since all 13 serial numbers have been published by Gibson, it will be almost impossible to pass these off to any potential buyers.

Special 13
Instead of just re-making them and duplicating the serial numbers or just making new serial numbers, the new guitars will have a little something special added. In order to distinguish them from the stolen guitars, they will all get a special notation on the headstock to show that they are the replacement from the original batch. Exactly what the mark looks like is still secret; Gibson wants to surprise its 13 customers.

Every cloud has a, ahem, silverburst lining
Terrible jokes aside, this “special notation” could well make these 13 guitars incredibly collectable – so it looks like the whole story worked out for the people who were denied their new new guitars. Gibson says the 13 will be with their new owners sometime in February 2021.

Fan bloody tas tik Gibson, well done
It really makes me happy to hear that the ppl who ordered these guitars,& had them stolen,will in fact get what they paid for,and then some…according to Gibson. I just wish I could afford one myself.😀
Too many incredible choices between all of them. I’m sold on the 59 Led Paul with push/pull effects. Brilliant Ideas ahead of Brilliant People
Adam if you happen to read this, and I’ve been listening to TOOL since “95”, and being a life long fan who’s not well off, I will not support any stolen guitars it may possibly come my way, in the form of a irresistible discount!!! I hope every fan of yours takes this stance, out of pure respect for you, Gibson, and your art, spiral out keep going!!!
Nicely Done, Gibson!!
Adam Jones a one-of-a-kind artist! Gibson a one-of-a-kind Luthier Co.
Awesome!
