The Story

1959 Les Paul Standard Made 2 Measure Mojave Fade with CC22 Colletti Neck

Wow, just look at the top on this Made 2 Measure '59! A Music Zoo-spec'd Les Paul, this one is finished in a beautiful Mojave Fade color over a flame maple cap. The guitar features a VOS finish to add a light patina to the hardware, and two Custom Bucker pickups! The soft "V" neck profile is modeled after Zoo owner Tommy Colletti's 1959 Les Paul Custom which was run as Collector's Choice #22! If you're looking for a neck that feels perfect for lead guitar playing, this one is it.

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