The Story

Standard Historic '59 Les Paul Reissue Dark Bourbon Fade Gloss

Here we have an awesome looking 2018 Gibson Custom Shop '59 Les Paul as part of the Standard Historic series, which sees the solid-bodied, sunbursted guitar with historic aniline dye, hide glue neck construction, and the long-neck tenon of the original Les Pauls. The guitar has a Dark Bourbon Fade gloss finish over a maple cap, solid mahogany body, Custom Bucker PAF humbuckers, and a slight "V" '59 neck profile that's one of our favorite shapes for lead playing. This one has a very cool top with thin and consistent flames from top to bottom!

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