A 1995 Gibson Custom Shop Historic Collection 1959 Les Paul Standard.
This is a rare example from the early days of the Historic Collection!
* Based on the serial number and other specifications, we have determined that it was built in 1995.
The top is made of maple with a distinct, well-defined flame pattern, while the body back and neck are crafted from high-quality mahogany.
It features a rosewood fingerboard, adhering to the classic Les Paul specifications.
The neck shape has a moderate thickness and offers a comfortable grip that fits naturally in the hand.
It is equipped with mesh-wound pickups; as there are no signs of solder replacement, we believe they are original.
This is a rare instrument featuring a top with a cool grain pattern typical of that era!

There are several small dents accompanied by paint cracks on the lower portion of the body top.
There is a crack in the backplate, and the hardware shows some tarnish and fine rust spots.
There are also some minor scratches and small dents.
