The Story

1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS Washed Cherry Sunburst

This is the quintessential Gibson Les Paul: a 1959 Model in Washed Cherry Sunburst. This might be a perfect Les Paul: the vibrant color, the insanely detailed flame top consistent throughout the entire guitar and an ideal Les Paul weight of 8 lbs, 8 oz. It doesn't get cooler than this!

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