Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS Electric Guitar Iced Tea Burst

as you can get to what you would have found hanging on the wall of your local music store when they were first produced. Here's what Gibson Custom has to say about this particular model: "1959 is widely considered to be the pinnacle year for Gibson's mid-century solid-body electric guitars, and no 1959 Gibson model is more famous than the sunburst Les Paul Standard. At first a commercial failure, the model was eventually adopted by some the world's greatest guitarists-Jimmy Page, Duane Allman, Mike Bloomfield, Keith Richards, Eric Clapton and Billy Gibbons, to name a few. The rarity and celebrity association of the model has pushed the values of original examples into the stratosphere." Gibson Custom's 1959 Les Paul Standard is a painstakingly accurate replica of these highly valuable guitars rendered in detail so intricate that even the chemical composition of the parts has been scientifically examined and reengineered-and that's just one small example. Sonically, visually and tactilely, owning a Gibson Custom Shop Historic '59 Les Paul Standard is as close as one can get to owning a priceless original. This guitar includes a hardshell case.
