In 1958, Gibson introduced the Les Paul Standard with a groundbreaking innovation: a two-piece, bookmatched maple top, red aniline-dyed back and sides, and a stunning transparent Cherry Burst finish. Exposure to sunlight and natural variations ensured that every LP Standard developed a unique character over time.

This '59 Les Paul reissue stays true to its roots with a mahogany body, a two-piece flamed maple top, and a mahogany neck built to Vintage Original Specifications. It features an authentic '59 medium 'C' neck profile, an Indian rosewood fretboard with cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays, a nylon top nut, and Custombucker pickups—just a few of the defining elements that make this guitar truly inimitable.

True to form, this Les Paul delivers deep lows, vintage warmth, and the signature cutting highs of the bridge pickup. The guitar comes in a hardshell case with case candy and a certificate of authenticity.
