Sometimes guitars bring a special touch to our own Fellows, and this Les Paul Special is one of those guitars. A true stage guitar that plays and sounds fantastic; you simply want to be seen and heard with this guitar!

This 1960 Gibson Les Paul Special has a remarkable story! The guitar was built in 1960, and was given a completely new neck at the Gibson factory in the early 1970s after an irreparable break at the heel. The finish was perfectly matched to the body, and the original serial number was also applied onto the back of the headstock. With this re-neck, the body, electronics, and hardware were retained. Two original P90s with an output of around 8k give you that typical sound with bite when played with overdrive, or that beautiful, full clean sound that makes every note resonate.

Gibson introduced the Les Paul Special in 1955, a year after the introduction of the Les Paul Junior. A step up from the Junior, it featured two P90 pickups instead of a single one. However, the model was still sold as a student model, and from 1958 onward, it was equipped with a double cutaway instead of the single cutaway that had been used since its introduction.

The guitar features a mahogany body and neck, joined together using a glued construction. The neck has a sturdy C-profile and a rosewood fingerboard with a 10-inch radius. The two P90 pickups give this Les Paul Special its unadulterated rock 'n' roll image, and its dual volume and tone knobs make it a versatile instrument. The "Les Paul Special" name is no longer legible; Gibson discontinued these letters in 1959.

As mentioned earlier, this Les Paul Special has a completely new neck, but it's certainly still very vintage. The playwear on the body and neck makes this a guitar you certainly don't need to handle with kid gloves; you can rock the stage with confidence, just as it should be with a guitar like this!

It comes with a TFOA passport and comes in a modern Gibson hardshell case.
