This 2013 Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Gloss Reissue is a painstaking recreation of the most lusted-after, legendary & iconic Les Pauls ever – The 1959 Les Paul Standard “Burst”
THIS ONE HAS THAT “IT FACTOR”… LOOKS, PLAYS, AND FEELS JUST LIKE A ’59 BURST! 2013 1959 Reissue Spec Updates Overview:
• One piece, single layer Rosewood fingerboards with real celluloid Trapezoid inlays  • Aniline dye on back & sides on burst finishes. This was original and discontinued many years ago. Aniline dye is a vintage wood coloring technique that accentuates wood grain and color.  • Kluson “Deluxe” tuners – the most accurate reproductions to date. These tuning keys feature the correct color, vintage profile and specifications.  • Hide glue on neck to body joint. Many argue that the original hide-glue guitars are tonally superior to the modern aliphatic adhesives. Hide glue turns transparent in the neck joint & also allows for easier removal of the neck. • New Custom Bucker pickups. These new Custom Bucker Pickups are the most accurate reproduction of the original fifties PAF pickups to date and not available after market.  • Truss Rod Assembly has been redesigned to the vintage truss rods of the 50's & do not have sleeve or "condom" of the previous reissues.  • Slightly darker cream binding to match the original 50's Gibsons.  • New color formula for the back & sides that result in a slightly darker color with more depth & grain presentation.

Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Reissue R9 Gloss~ Vintage Sunset Iced Tea Fade Burst
The Most Accurate Reproduction of the Original 1959 Les Paul. 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 The Reissue Series instruments, the 1959 Les Paul 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 treatment of the Sunset Iced Tea Faded Burst finish gives it the look of a sun faded Cherry Burst vintage guitar. Includes Gibson Custom Shop case and a certificate of authenticity.
