Description

The Essentials to Know About the Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue Guitar

  • Ultra-faithful historic reissue: laser-scanned specs, recreated plastics, and matching sunburst to capture the spirit of the original '59s.
  • Premium woods: lightweight one-piece mahogany back and two-piece figured maple top for singing sustain and sculpted highs.
  • Vintage electronics: two non-paraffin-coated Alnico III Custombuckers and Paper-in-Oil capacitors for authentic PAF tone.
  • Historic hardware: ABR-1 bridge, lightweight aluminum tailpiece, and Kluson tuners for period-accurate response and balance.

1959, the Legendary Year of the Les Paul

The ultimate symbol of the "Bursts," the 1959 Standard shaped the sound of rock. This Custom Shop reissue sits at the top of the Historic Reissue line, the result of decades of research to replicate every detail of the ergonomics, finishes, and materials of the priceless original models.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

Ideal for intermediate to expert guitarists demanding a collectible instrument ready for stage and studio. Perfect for blues, classic rock, vintage hard rock, as well as jazz or pop thanks to its great expressiveness and dynamics.

The Sound

The mahogany/maple combination delivers a fleshy midrange, firm lows, and bright highs. The non-paraffin-coated Alnico III Custombuckers provide an airy attack, rich harmonics, and natural compression at high volume, very close to historic PAFs. The ABR-1 bridge + aluminum tailpiece enhance sustain and intonation precision, while the wiring with CTS 500k Audio Taper pots and Paper-in-Oil capacitors ensures smooth and musical control sweeps. From woody cleans to creamy crunches and singing leads, the palette is broad and inspiring.
