Description
This Gibson Custom '59 Les Paul Reissue is a striking example of craftsmanship and attention to detail, built to our exact specifications. During a visit to Gibson Custom in Nashville, we personally selected this AAA figured maple top, ensuring a standout visual under the stunning Cobra Burst VOS finish. The ultra-lightweight mahogany back keeps the guitar resonant while remaining comfortable for long playing sessions.
The R9 V1 Carmalita neck profile offers the solid, vintage feel that Les Paul enthusiasts crave, while the rosewood fingerboard features aged cellulose trapezoid inlays for a historically accurate touch. The Jescar medium-jumbo frets provide smooth, precise playability, and the nylon reissue nut ensures stable intonation.
Loaded with double-aged white CustomBucker pickups, this Les Paul delivers raw, unpotted PAF-style tones with incredible clarity and warmth. The VOS nickel hardware includes an ABR-1 bridge, lightweight aluminum stopbar, and Kluson Deluxe tuners, all contributing to the guitar's vintage-accurate feel and performance.
For added flexibility, the pickguard and pickup covers are included separately in the case, allowing you to set up the guitar to your preference. With its hand-selected maple top, historically accurate appointments, and lightweight construction, this Gibson Custom '59 Les Paul Reissue is a standout instrument for players and collectors alike.
