Gibson Melody Maker 1959 - 1960 Les Paul Special Standard Conversion Seymour Duncan Joe Bonamassa Skinner Burst Pickups

A beautiful vintage 1959 or 1960 Gibson melody maker converted into a beautiful Les Paul with an 3/8ths thick old growth maple flame cap added from the Peter Florance Estate after his passing. Original Brazilian Rosewood fretboard.If it's a 1960 then it's an early one because it retains the chunky 59 neck profile. Just an all around beautiful guitar. Plays and sounds like the coveted burst era Les Paul's that are out of reach for the average person to ever get their hands on. This guitar just plays so amazing and sounds just as sweet. Only weighing in at a very light 6.3 lbs. I like wrap tails the best so I left that as is...kind a Jeff Beck tribute. It's kinda a mix between a standard and a special. It just plays soooo sweet. An old wood player that will give any vintage les paul a run for it's money, especially with the correct to vintage spec Seymour Duncan Joe Bonamassa Skinner Burst Pickups. As close to a real paf as you can get. This is probably the best vintage player you can get for the money...Get it while it lasts and thank you for looking. Check out my other items for sale.
