GIBSON 60th Anniversary 1959 Les Paul Standard VOS Sunrise Teaburst
Authentic reproduction of the 1959 Les Paul electric guitar with nitrocellulose finish and Custombucker pickups, including case and certificate
With the Gibson 60th Anniversary 1959 Les Paul Standard VOS Sunrise Teaburst, Gibson celebrates the diamond jubilee of the 1959 Les Paul, whose legendary sound makes it the holy grail of electric guitars for all sound gourmets and vintage enthusiasts. Based on the elegant Singlecut design, Gibson uses traditional woods and manufacturing methods for the 60th Anniversary model, so that the electric guitar is not a tribute, but a lovingly reproduced reissue of the legendary '59 Standard down to the smallest detail. Accordingly, all glued areas are finished with Hide Glue, with a mahogany body and neck complemented by a flamed maple top and a Bolivian Rosewood fingerboard. Gibson Customucker with Alnico III magnets and a hand-wired circuit with authentic paper-in-oil capacitors also ensure adequate sound conversion. Last but not least, the Gibson 60th Anniversary 1959 Les Paul Standard features the traditional hardware equipment with No-Wire ABR-1 bridge, an aluminum tailpiece and historically correct Kluson Single Ring/Single Line tuners.
