  In terms of looks and wood, a standard Les Paul features a maple top and mahogany back, while a Les Paul Custom features all-mahogany construction. Regarding sound, although both are Les Pauls, the Custom is said to have a slightly tighter sound. Conversely, I feel the Custom sounds more mellow, but I think that might be due to individual instrument differences. It comes down to personal preference, but the Custom has a higher retail price. For vintage models, however, the standard Les Paul is more expensive than the Custom.
