Gibson Custom Shop LPR-8 '58 Les Paul Reissue - Iced Tea Burst - USA 2013
Pickup currently unavailable
This is a beautiful Gibson Custom Shop LPR-8, the '58 Les Paul Standard Reissue, finished in a gorgeous Iced Tea Burst over a flame maple top. The '58 Reissue is widely regarded as the benchmark for vintage correct Les Paul construction, faithfully recreating the dimensions, profile and feel of the original 1958 Standards that started the whole Burst legend.
This example features a stunning, evenly flamed maple top with a rich, deep amber to red burst that really pops under light. The mahogany back and neck are finished in a warm cherry red, contrasting beautifully with the top.
Specified with a chunky '50s rounded neck profile and an authentic rosewood fingerboard with cream binding and trapezoid inlays, this guitar feels every bit the part of a genuine late '50s Les Paul. Loaded with PAF style humbuckers, it delivers that creamy, vocal midrange and singing sustain the '58 Reissue is famous for, equally at home for blues, rock or anything in between.
Comes complete with original Gibson Custom Shop hardshell case and Gibson Custom Shop Certificate of Authenticity, hand signed by Rick Gembar, Gibson Custom Shop General Manager and Senior Vice President, confirming this guitar was hand built by the highly skilled artisans of the Gibson Custom Shop as part of their century old tradition of investment quality instruments.
