Overview

The full '58 playing feel and uncovered PAF tone.

1958 was a great year for the Les Paul and this one represents a perfect recreation of an original that's been customized very little. It features a hand-picked maple top, CustomBucker pickups with exposed Zebra coils, and the pickguard is not installed, but comes inside the case. As part of the Historic Series it benefits from an almost scientific attention to detail. The mahogany neck is hand-sanded to match perfectly a 1958 neck profile, hide glue is used throughout the build process and the top is double-carved to perfection. Includes hardshell case.
