The Gibson 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue from the Gibson Custom Limited Edition Collection celebrates the iconic Gibson Les Paul with a fresh yet vintage-inspired presentation. Featuring a one-piece lightweight mahogany body and a two-piece light-figured maple top, paired with a Murphy Lab Light Aged Athens Burst nitrocellulose finish, it captures the look, feel, and resonance of a classic late-’50s Les Paul. A 1950s Chunky D mahogany neck with long neck tenon and a rosewood fretboard with cellulose trapezoid inlays ensures period-correct playability and comfort across the 24.75-inch scale.
Handcrafted by the artisans at the Gibson Custom Shop, this limited edition pairs vintage aesthetics with versatile, expressive tone. A matched pair of Gibson Custombucker pickups with double black bobbins delivers authentic late-’50s Patent Applied For clarity, bloom, and harmonic richness, from warm neck position warmth to bright bridge bite, making it a faithful yet distinctive interpretation of a timeless classic.
