  • Description: This 2011 Gibson Custom Historic 1959 Les Paul Reissue is the latest and the greatest Gibson has to offer. This guitar is extremely resonant and super light weighing 8 lbs 3.5 oz! The thickness of the neck measures .921 at the first fret and 1.000 at the 12th. Finished in a beautiful Stanley Burst Gloss finish, this guitar drop dead GORGEOUS!. The Stanley Burst finish is "inspired by" the Stanley Burst owned by Paul Stanley of Kiss and featured on the cover of Yasuhiko Iwanade's "The Beauty of the Burst" book. The Flame Maple top on this guitar is MAGNIFICANT! It was HANDPICKED by the experts in the Gibson Custom Shop. The COMBINATION OF WIDE CURLY TIGER FLAMES AND 3D HILLS AND VALLEYS WILL HYPNOTIZE YOU! This guitar is perfect and polished to a high gloss that feels like glass in your hand! This guitar is 100% MINT AS NEW and never owned. It comes complete with the Gibson Custom Shop case, certificate of authenticity, and MAGIC! The pickguard is also included, but it was never installed. Why? Because Gibson will not drill a top like this. The top is just too beautiful to cover up! Only a handfull of guitars leave the Custom Shop without having the pickguard installed. It's a sign of greatness and this is one of those guitars!
