GIBSON FACTORY LITERATURE:

Celebrating a love affair that began in the 1950s, HOT ROD magazine and the Gibson Custom Shop have welded the raw power of a souped-up automobile to the sweet vintage tone of a '58 Les Paul to produce the HOT ROD '58.This beautifully reproduced 1958 Les Paul brings to rock and roll what a '57 Chevy brings to the road. With ghosted flames licking a deep translucent red maple top, a pair of blue tailpipe pickups, a brushed chrome pick guard and a HOT ROD engraved truss rod cover, this guitar is barely street legal. Limited edition of 150.Gibson Hot Rod CustomThe new Gibson Hot Rod 58 by the Gibson Custom Shop is the ultimate custom guitar!Released in conjunction with Hot Rod Magazine this guitar has been designed to replicate the 1950s custom car look. With flames spreading down the centre of the body and pickups that have been heat oxidated just like a custom exhaust, it's a true hot rod collectors item.Finished in a red maple top with 'Hot Rod' engraved into the pick guard. Only150 guitars will be released worldwide.
