Description:
The 1960 Les Paul is the evolution of the legendary guitar produced in 1959. It features very similar characteristics, with the exception of the neck profile, which in 1960 gradually becomes slimmer, adopting a shape that today we would refer to as modern.
Gibson Custom now offers the most accurate replica ever made. The body is, of course, crafted from select solid mahogany, while the top is made of flame maple.
The carving of the top, the dimensions of the body, the plastic parts—every element has been faithfully reproduced.
It is redundant to go into detail; this represents the highest level that the Gibson Custom Shop has ever achieved.
