The Story

Collectors Choice 22 1959 Les Paul Custom Tommy Colletti Aged Ebony

It's always fun to get one of these Les Paul Customs back in stock to the store from which it came from! This is the 2015 Gibson Custom Shop Collectors Choice #22: the Tommy Colletti Les Paul Custom built after the original '59 that was owned by Music Zoo founder Tommy Colletti. The original '59 was special and unique in that it was originally owned by James Honeyman-Scott, guitarist and founding member of The Pretenders. Tommy worked very closely with the Custom Shop to recreate his personal โ€™59 Custom, from every last nick and ding down to the very unique neck which has a very soft โ€œVโ€ profile to it that fits right in the palm of your hand. This CC #22 is in overall excellent condition with the original case and certificate of authenticity included - all wear is original to how the Gibson Custom Shop intended the guitar to look and feel!

Includes: Original Hardshell Case and Papework
