Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Historic Reissue VOS Electric Guitar Extra Faded Cherry

Rating: List Price: unavailable Sale Price: $5,690.00 Availability: unspecified

Product Description

This Gibson 1959 Les Paul Historic Reissue VOS Electric Guitar is unique because of its special Extra Faded Cherry finish. Only 25 are built for the entire world. In 1959, the Les Paul Standard made a change to wider, fatter jumbo frets which made it a more facile guitar. The significance of this change wouldn't be felt until the late '60s when Clapton, Bloomfield, Peter Green, and other emerging guitarists discovered its warm, thick BurstBucker voice and fast, smooth and easy-playing neck. Then the Les Paul began its ascent toward ultimate icon status. Like all VOS (Vintage Original Spec) Series instruments, the 1959 Les Paul Historic Reissue is handcrafted for comfort and playability in the Gibson Custom Shop. The construction, neck profile, hardware, and electronics are period accurate, and a special nitrocellulose finish treatment gives it the patina of a gently aged vintage guitar. Includes Gibson Custom Shop case and a certificate of authenticity.

Product Description

A quick listen to any of Zakk Wylde’s seminal playing, from Ozzy Osbourne’s “No More Tears” to Black Label Society’s “Bleed For Me”, tells you instantly that this guitarist goes at it rough and ready, and takes no prisoners. The Zakk Wylde Les Paul BFG embodies the mammoth tone and over-the-top rock attitude of its name sake, and offers all the equipment necessary to undertake your own scorched-earth attack on your local music scene: from its rough-hewn bookmatched maple top, to its rounded ’50s-spec neck with ebony fingerboard, to its sizzling EMG 81 and 85 humbucking pickups — all approved by the Wylde man himself — the Zakk Wylde Les Paul BFG is primed to deliver the message, in a big way. And with two Zakk-certified looks to choose from, a bullseye graphic or buzzsaw graphic over a satin-natural nitro finish, there will be no mistaking that you have come for business.

Gibson Custom 1955 Les Paul Historic Electric Guitar Slow Iced Tea Fade

Rating: List Price: unavailable Sale Price: $3,999.00 Availability: unspecified

Product Description

In the mid-50s, a sunburst finish was not an available option on a Gibson Les Paul. In 1958, Goldtops were phased out and a cherry sunburst became the standard finish. Sunburst finishes became all the rage with some really popular artists such as Clapton and Bloomfield using late-50s 'Bursts. The single-cutaway Les Paul guitars were discontinued in '60-'61 and were not reintroduced for several years. Many players started stripping the gold off the top of their early-mid-'50s Gibson Les Paul guitars and having them refinished to emulate the desirable Sunburst Les Pauls. The Gibson Custom Refin features a beautiful Slow Iced Tea Fade top and even has an offset center seam to emulate the originals. The Gibson Refin Hot-Mod Les Paul also introduces a comfortable and resonant neck shape, the Soft Shoulder '55 Neck Profile. The hot-mod slant on the Gibson Custom Hot-Mod 1955 Les Paul Goldtop Electric Guitar originates from a custom-ordered 1955 Les Paul that was later modified with humbucker pickups (introduced by Gibson in 1957). The classic combination of maple-topped mahogany body with ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and humbuckers delivers a glorious monster tone that introduces a comfortable and resonant neck profile. Alnico V pickup The Alnico V pickup found in the neck position on the Gibson Custom 1955 Les Paul Custom electric guitar was designed in 1952 by Seth Lover and Walt Fuller for Gibson to succeed the P-90 single-coil pickup on several of Gibson's distinguished archtop jazz hollowbodies, most famously the L5 CES, ES-5, and Byrdland guitars. Similar to the P-90 in appearance, the Alnico V is easily recognized by its distinctive rectangular pole pieces. The guitar pickup gets its name from the stronger Alnico V magnets, while each coil has 10,000 turns of 42-gauge wire to achieve its clear, round, ringing sound. It made its debut on a solidbody Gibson in the Fretless Wonder of 1954, the Les Paul Custom, or Black Beauty. P-90 single-coil pickup The bridge position

Gibson Custom 50th Anniversary 1959 Les Paul Reissue Antiquity Burst Electric Guitar Antiquity Burst

Rating: List Price: unavailable Sale Price: $5,999.00 Availability: unspecified

Product Description

With the release of the 50th Anniversary 1959 Les Paul Sunburst Reissue Antiquity Burst Electric Guitar, the Gibson Custom Shop takes the art of recreating the company's hallowed guitars to an entirely new level. Antiquity Burst The 50th Anniversary of the 1959 Gibson Les Paul has brought many exciting sunburst finishes which have emulated the way original examples have faded over the past half century from the original Cherry Burst due to exposure to various climatic changes - both natural and manmade. The 50th Anniversary 1959 Gibson Les Paul in Antiquity Burst takes this concept to an entirely different level. The Antiquity Burst represents the revelation one would encounter if he were to remove the pickguard on an original fifties burst for the first time. Areas that were for decades protected from UV exposure still maintain their original brilliant Cherry Burst. This is true for all of the plastic covered parts on the burst. Below the toggle ring is also the original brilliant Cherry Burst and Gibson even replicated this under the pickup mounting rings! The pickguard and toggle ring are included with the instrument for the new owner to decide if he wants to share the secret of the Antiquity Burst by leaving them off or install the toggle ring and guard and join the Knights of the Secret Society of the Antiquity Burst. The '59 Burst There have been many great guitars throughout Gibson's long and storied history as a maker of musical instruments, but only one remains the definitive pinnacle of electric solid body guitar design. That guitar is the 1959 Les Paul Standard. Coveted both by players and collectors as the ultimate example of playability, attractiveness and tone, the iconic 1959 Les Paul guitar simply has no equal. True reissue The 1959 Les Paul Sunburst reissue is true to all of the original guitar's features and characteristics, including Gibson's traditional hand-carved figured maple top and solid, non-weight relieved mahogany body. The headstock is c
