This guitar is simply stunning, the flame and grain fit together so beautifully. I searched long and hard to find this one. So why am I selling, kids going to college and time to let a few go. This will be someone's treasure for certain.
Describing the sound, so subjective, ...but I would say deep, warm, rich, and thick, but can still bite as needed. It has long sustain, probably from being a little fat (overweight). It sounds just like you would expect from a guitar that looks this good. Plays nice and feels nice. The top was exactly what I searched and waited for. Very Jimmy Page #2ish (maybe when it was new on the showroom floor). The near perfect bookmatched flame top is more '59ish than most '58's are, and is in excellent like new condition, nothing to mention. I do not have it listed anywhere else. The filtered pics were posted new by the original seller. I bought it new and have taken very good care of it, seldom left my home. The others are by me.
Very very light "barely" surface brush marks on back of body near neck. The only imperfections I could find.
The Gibson Standard Historic 1958 Standard Les Paul electric guitar from the Gibson Custom Shop looks and feels as an original ’58 Les Paul. This handmade beauty is historically accurate made, from components to wood to construction. It lets you experience the authentic vintage Gibson sounds without having to compensate for quality.
The Standard Historic 1958 is made with a Figured Maple top with Single Bound, 50’s Cream binding, a mahogany back and neck, Solid Indian Rosewood fingerboard with 22 frets. The 1950’s Style Les Paul body features no weight relief and comes in at 9.4lbs. Supporting it all are two Custom Bucker humbucking pickups, these consist out of the best reproduced PAFs made with authentic chime, bite and growl. The Iced Tea color with gloss texture and Nitro cellulose finish completes this wonderful guitar.
Comes with original Gibson case
