2018 Gibson Custom Shop Historic 58 Les Paul Standard Dark Bourbon Fade VOS HN 1958 Reissue R8 NEW
The guitar is NEW, included case, docs, tags, papers etc.
This Gibson Custom Historic Collection 58 Les Paul Standard is a beautiful vintage correct reissue, in Dark Bourbon Fade VOS finish.
In 1958, Gibson parted ways with the gold finish on the Les Paul Model and introduced the “Les Paul Standard,” a refresh that featured a center-seam maple top, red aniline dye back and sides, and a beautiful transparent Cherry Sunburst finish. While only that one color was available originally, exposure to sunlight and subtle variations have made each original example unique in color. Gibson Custom picked four beautiful sunburst variations for the 2018 Historic Collection, each bringing out all the character of the unique maple tops. And just like the 1958 originals, the neck profiles on these Historic models are just a bit beefier on average when compared to a 1959 – a comfortable chunky C-shape. Two new updates for 2018 include the inclusion of all True Historic-spec parts and, for the first time, narrow/tall frets which bring the tone and playability closer to the character of the originals.
