The Story

Roasted Standard Historic 1956 Les Paul Reissue VOS Ebony

This is a bad ass, lightly used Gibson Custom Shop '57 Les Paul with a VOS ebony finish to the body, and loaded with a single Super Distortion humbucker and a master volume control. The guitar is meant for those who want to bang out no-nonsense riffs on a chunky-necked guitar. This is one that's hard to forget! It’s in excellent condition with some light pick wear around the body, no major dings or dents – with the original case and COA included!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity
