For Sale: 2011 Gibson Chad Kroeger “Blackwater” Les Paul Trans Black | Piezo | OHSC | 7 lbs 14 oz
Includes Original Gibson Hard-Shell Case
Up for sale is a 2011 Gibson Chad Kroeger Blackwater Les Paul in Trans Black — a rare and highly versatile signature model that blends classic Les Paul tone with expanded acoustic capability.
Designed with Nickelback’s Chad Kroeger, this model looks like a traditional Les Paul but offers far more tonal flexibility thanks to its GraphTech Ghost piezo system, allowing you to run electric and acoustic sounds separately or blended together. Lightweight, resonant, and incredibly versatile, this is a standout piece for both stage and studio use.
