Description:
The Gibson Custom Shop reissue of the legendary 1959 Les Paul Standard is already something that makes any guitarist's heart race. However, when faced with a 1959 featuring a 5A Quilted Maple top... the ecstasy is inevitable!
It is rare to encounter a Quilted Maple top of this caliber. We specifically requested it from our friends at the Gibson Custom Shop, and they were able to satisfy our sophisticated taste!
The finish, designed to enhance the beauty of the maple, is Gloss, while the technical specifications are in line with the usual Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Standard.
A truly rare piece, almost one of a kind!
