Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul 1958 Reissue Left Handed Guitar
This guitar is a commission sale. If you have a high end guitar or amplifier you are interested in selling, please contact us. Here for sale we have a Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul 1958 Reissue Left Handed Electric Guitar in Faded Tobacco finish. Made in the USA in 2006, this set-neck tribute to a golden-era classic consists of a Mahogany body with a Carved Maple top, a Mahogany neck, and a 22-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include Vintage Trapezoid inlays, Single-ply Cream binding, Nickel hardware, Vintage-Style Tulip tuners, an ABR-1 bridge, and an Aluminium stopbar. The pickups that are installed in this guitar are a set of Gibson Burstbuckers that are wired to two volume controls, two tone controls, and a three-way pickup selector. The Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the Early 50’s Rounded profile filling the hand without being cumbersome, this offers a balanced and smooth playing experience. The Medium Jumbo frets and 12" radius provide a robust and smooth playing experience all across the Rosewood fingerboard, and enhance string bending and vibrato techniques. The single cutaway body design allows the player to access the higher register with ease, allowing for fast lead lines without any obstruction. Amplified, the pair of Gibson Burstbucker humbucking pickups deliver thick and full-bodied tones, just as we expect from Gibson. The Burstbucker 1 in the neck is round and powerful, and can handle plenty of gain for saturated lead tones. The Burstbucker 2 in the bridge is of course brighter, and with a higher output can easily push your amp into a harmonically rich & searing distortion tone which is perfect for rock rhythm parts and riffs. The traditional control layout is as practical and comprehensive as ever, with the pots responding well to small changes for easy tweaking of your tone while playing.
