New Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul VOS in stock! This is a "transition" guitar, features a 2013 serial number but 2014 specs.   Guitars from that first year of the Burst's production often had relatively plain maple tops, but through the course of 1959, Gibson's craftsmen built Les Pauls with tops that displayed more and more highly-figured grains, making these among the most collectible of the breed today. The 1959 Les Paul Reissue from Gibson Custom accurately recreates the original hallowed '59 Burst in every detail.    These are all represented with utmost accuracy in the 1959 Les Paul Reissue, while the guitar also benefits from Gibson Custom's 20th Anniversary Specifications, newly adopted for 2013. These include a one-piece rosewood fingerboard, Kluson Deluxe machine heads, hot-hide glue neck fit, a Historic Truss Rod assembly with no tubing, accurate body and fingerboard binding color, new Custom Buckers created in the image of the original PAFs, and period-correct Aniline dye. Gibson Custom's new Custom Bucker accurately recreates the original PAFs of the late '50s, using Alnico III magnets and unequal turns of 42 AWG wire in each coil for that characteristic PAF "bite." These pickups clean up beautifully at the guitar's volume controls, while Bumble Bee tone caps assist in that warm, singing "woman tone" when you roll back the tone controls. To top it all off, the 1959 Les Paul Reissue plays superbly right out of its Custom Shop hardshell case thanks to a trip through one of Gibson's state-of-the-art Plek machines before it leaves the Custom Shop floor.   Top Wood: Carved Figured Maple Body Wood: Solid Non-Weight Relieved Mahogany Neck Wood: 1-Piece Mahogany Neck Neck Shape: 50's Rounded Fingerboard: 1-Piece Rosewood Fingerboard Radius: 12" Inlays: Cellulose Trapezoids Frets: 22 Scale Length: 24.75" Width at Nut: 1 11/16" Headstock: Holly Veneer Binding: Slightly Darker Single-Ply Cream on Top and Neck Pickups: Custom Buckers Humbuckers Controls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone; 3-way Toggleswitch with Thin Washer & Jackplate Hardware : Nickel Bridge: ABR-1 Tailpiece: Lightweight Aluminum Stopbar Tuners: Kluson "Deluxe" Case: Gibson Custom Hardshell COA: Yes  s/n 932795 8 lbs. 14 oz.Why buy from Willcutt Guitars
