The Story

1959 Les Paul Reissue Antiquity Burst Made 2 Measure

This Music Zoo-spec'd Made 2 Measure '59 Les Paul is an ode to a real Blues Breaker. This '59 Reissue has a VOS Antiquity Burst finish over a hand-picked flame maple top. The neck has a "Carmelita" carve which is slightly thinner than the usual '59 "V" profile. You could also say that the Custom Bucker pickups cover May-all the tones you'd ever want out of a Les Paul. This is one cool and special '59 Les Paul!

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