Description
Consider a "Holy Grail" by many guitarists, the '59 Gibson Les Paul Standard is nothing if not a pure icon of some of the world's great guitarists across multiple genres. This limited-edition Standard is a painstaking replica of that hallowed original. Gibson went as far as analyzing and recreating chemical formulas for period plastics and other materials to make sure that, without a time machine, this is as close as you can ever come to buying a brand new '59. Includes deluxe lacquered hard case.
