2012 Gibson Custom Shop Joe Bonamassa BonaBurst Les Paul Standard VOS Reissue 1959 1958 R9 R8!

Here is a really nice Gibson Custom Shop Joe Bonamassa Signature Les Paul Standard in Bonaburst, a great example of this unique and well-spec’d artist model.

This one just came in from the original owner and is very clean overall. There are just a couple light marks here and there, but nothing significant — easily excellent condition.

The guitar appears to be all original, with the only change being the Grover tuners upgraded to locking versions. Importantly, no extra holes were drilled, so it could be returned to stock if desired.

This is a really cool Les Paul with some standout features, including the dark Bonaburst finish with black back, a nice chunky ‘50s-style neck, and a lower-positioned Gibson logo for that more vintage-correct look.

The Details
  • Condition: Excellent
  • Originality: Upgraded locking Grover tuners (no extra holes)
