Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue 2023 VOS Iced Tea Burst
Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue 2023 VOS Iced Tea Burst
Gibson's Custom Shop has gone to great lengths to clone the original 1959 Les Paul,including exact dimensions, authentic materials and accurate colors. Gibson refers to these recreations as, "the best representation of the 1959 Les Paul Standard since the Gibson Custom Shop began making Historic Reissues over twenty-five years ago."
This one is a great example, featuring one of the best looking tops we've seen along with the classic Iced Tea Burst nitro finish—the pictures really do not do this guitar justice, it looks pretty rad. This guitar is also as much of a joy to play as it is to look at coming in at 9lbs which isn't bad for a maple capped, solid mahogany body guitar. If you want one of the best looking, feeling, and playing Les Paul's out there, then look no further. A hardshell case is included.
