Gibson Custom 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue Washed Cherry Sunburst (Pre-Owned Mint)

Condition: Pre-Owned Mint (little to no play wear). Comes with original case and case candy.

The Gibson 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue in Washed Cherry Sunburst celebrates the final year of the original Les Paul Standard, capturing the unique features that distinguish it from its 1959 predecessor. The slim-taper neck profile delivers exceptional playability, making it a favorite among guitar legends like Eric Clapton and Joe Walsh. Authentic touches, including "reflector" knobs, double-ring tuner tips, and the Washed Cherry Sunburst finish, bring the vintage vibe to life.

Crafted with meticulous detail, this reissue boasts a solid mahogany body, a beautifully figured maple top, and Custom Shop-voiced humbuckers for the unmistakable Les Paul tone. Period-correct construction techniques, such as hide-glue joints and re-engineered plastics, ensure historical accuracy and tonal purity. Whether you’re a player or a collector, this 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue is a masterpiece that delivers classic tones and timeless style.
