This small piece of plastic with just Les Paul written on is nearly 3 times the price of those. Personally I can't see why, however, it is the one I bought.I own a Gibson LPM which had the rather naff looking E-Tune logo on the cover. I wanted to replace it with a genuine Gibson part and I wanted it to say Les Paul as the famous name is nowhere else on that particular model. Had I wanted to get one that said Les Paul Custom or any of the other model names it would have cost me under £6.So five stars for the product but reduced to 3 for the price.On a side note the cover has a white line running around the outside that matches the white of the writing. Just mentioning this because it is not clear in the photo. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars A Genuine Gibson replacement part, as per OEM specifications *by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 30 August 2017* A direct replacement for the Gibson Les Paul Standard, this is the OEM part which is fitted to the Les Paul Standard at the factory in Nashville. Ordered to replace a scratched cover, this product is a perfect replacement.Please Note: The images shown are of the older 'Standard' font style, which was used on Gibson truss rod covers until the 2008 (?) Standard model. The cover I received was of the newer font variety, as shown in the picture below. I used the cover on a newer LP, so this was correct, but beware for pre-2008 models as I believe the old font cover is no longer produced. ### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars misses the mark, doesn’t really look right when compared to the real thing *by J***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 8 December 2020* it almost looks the part, i brought this for my SG for the vintage look, it’s close but not really any different to the other custom shop truss covers for gibson just has les paul engraved on it, it should have a much thicker white edge which you can clearly see when googling real vintage sgs, none of these re issued parts seem to offer that. It’s also absurdly priced I mean ridiculously over priced for a piece of plastic! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/71897752-gibson-gear-prtr-061-les-paul-historic-61-cache-truss](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/71897752-gibson-gear-prtr-061-les-paul-historic-61-cache-truss) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
