This 2019 Gibson Custom Shop 60th Anniversary 1959 Les Paul Standard Factory Burst is a beautifully aged, historically accurate recreation of the most iconic electric guitar ever made. With a stunning figured maple top, hide-glue construction, unpotted Alnico III Custombuckers, and all period-correct plastics and hardware, this R9 delivers the unmistakable feel, resonance, and tone of a golden-era ’59 Burst. It’s extremely responsive, warm, and articulate — everything a great Les Paul should be.
