The Story

1959 Les Paul Standard VOS Western Desert Fade Made 2 Measure

Taking a page out of a very famous Les Paul known as "#2", this is a Music Zoo-spec'd Made 2 Measure 1959 Les Paul in VOS Western Desert Fade. The guitar has a spectacular flame maple cap, and a '59 neck profile that feels perfect for lead guitar playing. The uncovered Custombucker in the bridge position adds to the unique looks, and we outfitted this '59 with Grover tuners as well. If you know, you know.

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