Up for sale is a rare holy grail from the Gibson Custom Shop: the 2009 Billy Gibbons "Pearly Gates" 1959 Les Paul Standard VOS.This is number 171 of the highly limited run of only 250 VOS models produced worldwide. It is a meticulous, forensic recreation of ZZ Top’s legendary original '59 Burst. This guitar captures the exact look, feel, and biting Texas blues-rock mojo of the original "Pearly Gates."

The hand-selected figured maple top on this specific guitar features a gorgeous, deep three-dimensional flame that shifts beautifully in the light, perfectly mimicking the original icon. The Vintage Original Spec (VOS) finish gives it a gently aged, muted patina with no artificial heavy relic wear.

Equipped with its original, matched set of Seymour Duncan Custom Shop Billy Gibbons PAF replica pickups, this guitar delivers incredible clarity, rich harmonics, and that signature mid-range honk. The custom "Pearly Gates" neck profile is a comfortable, slightly chunky '59 carve with perfectly rolled shoulders.Condition & Originality
