The Story

Slash 1958 Les Paul First Standard #8 3096 Replica Aged and Signed

This is #3 out of the run of only 50 Aged and Signed Les Pauls. It includes the original case, all Gibson paperwork, certificate of authenticity, and the original Gibson shipping box. This is a fantastic guitar for anyone who loves Les Pauls, Slash, Guns n’ Roses, or even just the history of the electric guitar just as much as we do. This is the Gibson Custom Shop Slash 1958 “First Standard’ replica of Slash’s original ’58, serial number 8 3096. The reason this model is named the “First Standard’ is that it recently was uncovered that the original guitar was the very first production 2-piece center-seam sunburst Les Paul ever produced by Gibson, which was shipped to display at the 1958 Music Industry Trade Show! The original guitar was scanned and measured by the Custom Shop down to every last detail, from recreating the “C” shape of the neck to the tone produced by the Custom Bucker Alnico III humbuckers.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags, Paperwork, Original Gibson Shipping Box
