Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Standard (Iced Tea)
In 1959, the Les Paul Standard made a change to wider, fatter jumbo frets which made it a more facile guitar. The significance of this change wouldn't be felt until the late '60s when Clapton, Bloomfield, Peter Green, and other emerging guitarists discovered its warm, thick BurstBucker voice and fast, smooth and easy-playing neck.
Then the Les Paul began its ascent toward ultimate icon status. The construction, neck profile, hardware, and electronics are period accurate, and unlike the V.O.S. instruments, looks brand new, shiny and un-aged! Includes Gibson Custom Shop case, a certificate of authenticity, and custom care kit.
