Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue Electric Guitar (with Case)








zZounds Gear Experts Say...
This Gibson Custom 58 Les Paul VOS recreates the first year of the famed burst finish. This model's nitro lacquer cherry sunburst finish is a true beauty.

Overview
In 1958, Gibson parted ways with the gold finish on the Les Paul Model and introduced the Les Paul Standard, a refresh that featured a center-seam maple top, red aniline dye back and sides, and a beautiful transparent Cherry Sunburst finish. While only that one color was available originally, exposure to sunlight and subtle variations have made each original example unique in color. Gibson Custom picked four beautiful sunburst variations for the new 2018 Historic Collection, each bringing out all the character of the unique maple tops.
And just like the 1958 originals, the neck profiles on these Historic models are just a bit beefier on average when compared to a 1959 -- a comfortable chunky C-shape. Two new updates for 2018 include the inclusion of all True Historic-spec parts and, for the first time, narrow/tall frets which bring the tone and playability closer to the character of the originals.

This is the best guitar I have ever played. It sounds amazing clean. It sounds amazing distorted. It is a gorgeous instrument. Everything about this guitar is top notch. The feel, sound, and even the smell. Many players overlook how a guitar smells. Take a whiff of this beauty.
