Item: GBLPR83WCNH1301
The new 2013 '58 Les Paul Reissue from Gibson Custom has all the great new improvements that they implemented on the 1959 Historic Les Pauls. The simple yet dramatic changes have elevated this year’s Historic Reissue to the "one to have" status. Even the Custom Bucker pickups have been rewound for this Reissue to give it the closest reproduction of that classic "PAF" sound to date. You will find these pickups only on their new Historic Reissues. Gibson is also using 1-piece dark rosewood fingerboards. The mahogany body and neck are stained with aniline dye as the original was to give them the richest and deepest color and grain detail while allowing the body's resonance to increase. The neck is now fitted with hide-glue which will help with resonance as well. The Kluson “Deluxe” tuners have been redesigned to be the most accurate reproductions yet. The body binding has been accurately darkened for more of a correct vintage look. If you were waiting to find that classic Les Paul that has the tone, feel and look that you could only dream about.... you definitely want to put one if these in your hands Today.
