The Story

1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS Kentucky Bourbon Fade Made 2 Measure

This is a gorgeous Made 2 Measure '59 Les Paul, spec'd by us to feature a Kentucky Bourbon Fade color and modeled after a very famous '59 whose tone really...Bloomed, if you catch our drift. The Kentucky Bourbon Fade finish showcases every inch of the gorgeous flame figuring, and we dig the addition of the Grover kidney tuners!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity
