Step back to the golden era of electric guitar craftsmanship with the 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue, a meticulously crafted instrument that captures the essence of Gibson’s legendary late-50s models. This exceptional guitar incorporates all the painstaking historic construction methods found in the renowned ‘59 Reissues, whilst featuring several historically-accurate specifications that give it a distinct character all its own.
The 1958 model stays true to its original counterpart with narrow frets that allow more of the fingerboard timber to contribute to the overall tonal profile. Combined with a round, chunky neck profile, players enjoy a substantial feel in their hands along with maximum leverage for string bending techniques. These authentic design elements work together to create the playing experience that made the original 1958 models so highly sought after.
Each instrument showcases a stunning plain maple top that’s completely unique, full of natural character and grain patterns that make every guitar one-of-a-kind. Available in a selection of classic sunburst finishes, these guitars capture the visual appeal that defined the era.
