The Holy Grail
Gibson Custom Shop’s 1959 Les Paul™ Standard Reissue is not just a tribute to the priceless original models—it’s a clone of them. From laser-scanned dimensions to chemically-recreated plastics to color-matched shades of sunburst, every element has been rendered in unbelievable detail. It represents the culmination of decades of work by Custom Shop’s expert team—a tireless quest to bring accuracy and authenticity to the hands of fans. It’s the definition of cool, and it’s the best representation of the 1959 Les Paul Standard since the Gibson Custom Shop began making Historic Reissues over twenty-five years ago. It features Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of natural play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era.

new one at the cheapest Guitar Stores in the USA, with Sale tax will cost $11,800. You want to save almost $3,000 for one with 5 hours playing time on it...Smart Money here. I have a Real 1959 wrap around light weight 1 oz on this Les Paul and as seen in the photos. And is not included in this sale, the original 1oz one will go back on.. But this one can be bought.. I put new strings on and had to try a 66 year old one to see if it sounded better... I don't think so.. As This is as Close as a Burst anyone can get. Grand in Every Single Way!
