Pre-owned in very good condition, this 2014 Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Standard VOS is finished in a lovely Bourbon Burst. This is a very high quality instrument that looks, plays and sounds the part.
There are some signs of use including some very small dings on the back and one on the fretboard (as pictured). There is also a small amount of patina to the hardware and a minimal amount of fret wear. Overall this R8 presents very well and represents great value compared to buying new!
Includes original deluxe hardshell case, tags and COA.
The 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue features all the painstaking historic construction methods of the famous '59 Reissues with a few historically-accurate spec differences that allow it to stand on its own. It has a round, chunky neck profile for a full feel and maximum bending leverage. And finally it has a beautiful plain maple top; each is unique and full of character.
