The Story

Used 2010 1959 Les Paul VOS Electric Guitar Antique Red

This beautiful '59 reissue was a one-off built at the Gibson Custom Shop in 2010 with a VOS Antique Red finish over a highly flamed and wonderfully bookmatched flame maple top, on a solid mahogany body with two Burstbucker humbuckers to provide the sound. The top on this guitar was handpicked and special ordered for its figuring. The previous owner special ordered it with the brown Lifton hardshell case, and antiqued yellow binding to contrast the top color. The guitar has a non-original nylon nut on it, and the original is included in the case. With the exception of some very light fretware on the first few frets - the guitar is in excellent condition.

Includes: Vintage-Style Lifton Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Original Nut
