2011 GIBSON LES PAUL
1959 CUSTOM SHOP HISTORIC REISSUE
WILDWOOD SPEC
300th R9 Made in 2011You are bidding on a Beautiful and Rare Les Paul, NO RESERVE AUCTION! This Near Mint example has a absolutely stunning Wildwood Spec sunburst finish over an evenly flamed maple top. This Historic R9 truly should be a benchmark for this model!
A great representation of what happens when you put Gibsons Custom/Historic division together with the tone maniacs at Wildwood Guitars you get this incredible Musical Instrument!
My job recently notified me that I need to move to another state, so unfortunatly for me I have to put my beloved R9 Les Paul on sale to scramble up some money for the move. Straight out of my personal collection. You will not be dissapointed. NON Weight Relieved, Lightweight tone woods used in this Solid Body. Guitar weights in at a very comfortable 8.46 lbs. Also, Enjoy this very comfortable neck, not as thick as a 58' and not as thin as a 60's model but right in the middle, it will fit your hand like a glove.
These Custom Shop R9s are TOP of the LINE and a incredibly accurate representation of the "Holy Grail" 1959 Les Paul.
What sets these WILDWOOD SPECS apart is:
Custom Color and Hand Selected Hardwoods Finished in a WILDWOOD Burst.Tone Pros Long Studs and Anchors.
The long anchors transfer more resonance and sustain and a piano-like fundamental; a bigger, throatier, and more masculine singing voice; The high end is more balanced, open and present without any of the harsher, spiky transients.Special Designed Gibson Custom Bucker pickups wound to WILDWOOD SPEC
The special design pickups offer unparalleled touch sensitivity and response, articulation with gorgeous bloom, compression and bounce, and are absolutely dripping with overtones and harmonics. THESE ARE GREAT PICKUPS!
Another thing I like about these 2011 models (this is just my personal preference) is how the guitar has no "custom shop" emblems or markings visible anywhere on the body. This guitar literally looks and plays like a near mint condition 1959 les paul. Very Cool! Later models have custom shop markings visible on the body, but not yours!Serial # 9 1300
9 = 59" Reissue
