Overview

The most accurate reissue series Gibson's Custom Shop has ever produced!

The AA flamed maple top is exactly the kind of wood that went on the Les Pauls in '59. BurstBucker 1 and 2 pickups are precision re-creations of original "Patent Applied For" pickups, right down to the mismatched windings. Original bumblebee capacitors, long-tenon 1959 rounded neck profile, CTS pots, original aluminum stopbar, and tons of other details make it look, sound, and play identically to the original. Mahogany back and neck with rosewood fretboard.



Check the drop-down menu to the right to select colors and/or other options.
