The Gibson Custom Shop's 1959 Les Paul reissue is the culmination of decades of work by the Custom Shop's team of experts, a relentless quest to bring accuracy and reliability to Gibson fans. This is the definition of cool and the best representation of the standard 1959 Les Paul since the custom Gibson shop began producing historic reissues over 25 years ago. Features ultra-light aging by Murphy Lab's skilled craftsmen. Murphy Lab's Ultra Light Aged finish treatment, combined with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of light gaming use, giving it the unique character, charm and feel of the original Gibson Golden Era.
