"Absolutely Stunning!!"

Feature:
It's a 58' Gibson Les Paul with a Custom Shop case, worth every penny!

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!

Desirability:
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.

Sound:
Amazing! Classic Rock & Blues sound incredible! Paired up with Marshalls and 1960 Vintage cabs, I can't ask for more!

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!

Support:
Have never had any problems with any of my Gibsons, but they have always been helpful when contacted for info.

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!

"Perfection"

Feature:
Volume + Tone control...what more do you need??

Quality:
It's perfect... Looks like it was made in 1958, and then stored perfectly until today...

Value:
I paid $2,600 for mine...can't beat that... I'd certainly pay list price for it... Just remember... It's an investment

Desirability:
It's a 58 les paul?! Holy Grail springs to mind...

Sound:
It is the sound of Rock n' Roll

Ease of Use:
Love the big 50's neck...like a baseball bat at first...then it just fits...

Support:
No need for it

Overall:
It will last forever, sounds incredible, could play it for days at a time... Just perfection...Well done Gibson

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
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.
