GIBSON LES PAUL STANDARD 58 CUSTOM SHOP REISSUE - 2006
|
|
Very good condition Gibson Les Paul 1958 Custom Shop Reissue.
A sensational playing Gibson. Great frets and neck. Custom Shop greatness!!
Objects of distinction are seldom recognized immediately, and this was certainly the case when Gibson introduced the newly renamed Les Paul Standard in July of 1958. Having already made several modifications to the base Les Paul Model guitar over the previous two years – the Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece being the most notable changes – the new Les Paul Standard introduced in 1958 hoped to correct Gibson’s waning sales of solid body electric guitars, which had been on the decline ever since 1953 when the company shipped 2,245 instruments.
Please note: There is some color bleed from the neck onto the binding as pictured below, looks like a dye problem from Gibson, this does not effect the playability of the guitar. Special Price on this guitar!!
