Gibson Custom Shop '59 Les Paul Roasted Reissue Music Zoo Made 2 Measure VOS Kentucky Bourbon Fade 2024

'59 Les Paul Roasted Reissue Music Zoo VOS Kentucky Bourbon Fade 2024 Item Description

This is a very lightly used and still in overall excellent shape 2024 1959 Les Paul Roasted Reissue with a torrefied flame maple top - originally spec'd and sold here at The Music Zoo. The strap buttons have been changed, other than that the guitar remains original. Torrefied wood, also known as "roasted" wood is a process of removing excess moisture from the wood, in this case flame maple - to increase resonance and stability throughout weather changes, a healthy decrease in physical weight and a tone that's more akin to a guitar that has aged over years to have characteristics more like our favorite vintage guitars.

This Historic Reissue '59 Les Paul features a VOS Kentucky Bourbon Fade finish and two zebra bobbin Burstbuckers that have been underwound, giving you a more open sound with less gain pushing the front of your amp. We left the pickguard and the poker chip off this one to show off the flame top to its full extent!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags
