Gibson Custom Shop '57 Les Paul Custom Heavily Aged Electric Guitar Ebony

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tag and Paperwork

Here is a great Historic Reissue Les Paul Custom from Gibson. This reissue replicates the 1957 Les Paul in exacting detail with 2 pickups and stoptail. The guitar has been aged by the Custom Shop to replicate a guitar that's been played relentlessly throughout the years, with lots of finish checking and dings throughout the body. We dig the way the Custom Shop gave the guitar some authentic looking buckle rash on the back of the body, as well as the worn-off finish around the body binding.

Features include gold hardware, mahogany body & neck, ebony board, block inlays, and large '57 neck profile. Tonally this guitar has a brighter top end and attack from the ebony board, but with the mahogany top, it is rounded out with a mellower and creamier mid-range honk.
