Manufacturer's Description for Gibson Custom Historic 1958 Les Paul Standard Vintage Original Spec Electric Guitar (with Case)

In an effort to jump start the steadily declining sales of the Les Paul Model, Gibson abandoned the familiar gold finish and used a translucent, cherry sunburst finish which showed off the figured maple tops that were often used on Les Pauls. The renamed Les Paul Standard made its debut in 1958. Now part of Gibson's proprietary new Vintage Original Spec series -- the next step in their journey toward perfection.

Vintage Finish
Aged to perfection, Gibson VOS (Vintage Original Specs) guitars undergo an "aging process" for an oxidized finish and all the dings and scratches you would expect from a well-worn guitar. VOS series guitars look and feel like a 50-year-old guitar should. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Gibson products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (27 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Absolutely Stunning!!"
Sound: Amazing! Classic Rock & Blues sound incredible! Paired up with Marshalls and 1960 Vintage cabs, I can't ask for more! Feature: It's a 58' Gibson Les Paul with a Custom Shop case, worth every penny! Ease of Use: Paired up with the right equipment,(any equipment really), hands down, the best guitar I have ever owned in my 40 years of life! Quality: Perfect, right out of the box! The only guitar I own, out of the many, that I can honestly say, absolutely perfect, right out of the box! Value: Absolutely! Manufacturer Support: Have never had any problems with any of my Gibsons, but they have always been helpful when contacted for info. The Wow Factor: For me, the "sex appeal" is off the scale! If it had the same wonderful parts that my wife has, I'd boot my wife out (and I think she knows that). The beauty of the guitar is inspiring as well, always a good thing. Overall: It's with me until death, and even then it's going with me into the ground. It's definitely my number one. Wouldn't part with it for anything except my kids. With me, it's rare to connect with a guitar this quickly, instant love!
Style of Music: Various types of Rock primarily, and Blues

"Great Guitar"
Sound: Love the tone, thinking about trying some different pickups, but the stock Burstbuckers sound great on their own. Able to get a huge variety of tones with this guitar. Feature: Tone and volume, two good pickups, simple but effective Ease of Use: Easy guitar to play. The thick neck really seems to allow me to get comfortable and play a long time. Quality: No quality/finish issues Value: It sounds awesome, but it's a bit pricy, which is why this isn't a "10" Manufacturer Support: Was nice to talk to real person when I called customer support. I had no issues with the guitar, just questions about the warranty and they were quite helpful The Wow Factor: Just look at it Overall: This guitar is a lifer for me. I'll never sell it.
Style of Music: Rock
