GIBSON 1959 Les Paul Standard Dark Bourbon Fade #983015
1959 Reissue Les Paul with flamed maple top and custombucker pickups, including case and certificate
The Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard Dark Bourbon Fade from the Gibson Custom Shop comes closer to the coveted feel and sound of an original ’59 Burst than almost any other electric guitar. The Gibson Custom Shop of course uses the historical specifications and manufactures the electric guitar with a one-piece mahogany body, falmed maple top and mahogany neck with long neck base. Hide-glue and a thin nitro finish guarantee a free sound development and long sustain. The not too strong "Authentic '59 Medium C" profile and the typical 12" radius of the rosewood fingerboard also create comfortable playing characteristics. On the guitar amp, two Gibson custombuckers conjure up the typical PAF sound, whose singing midrange and lively dynamics provide the perfect foundation for the classic licks and riffs of blues and rock. A historically accurate and reliable hardware configuration with ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, aluminum stopbar and Kluson Deluxe tuners completes the Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard Dark Bourbon Fade.
The Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard Dark Bourbon Fade from the Gibson Custom Shop gives you the authentic feel and sound of an original 1959 Holy Grail Les Paul.
