Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Standard VOS (Ice Tea)

Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Standard VOS (Ice Tea) Overview

Classic 'new old stock' 2014 spec R8 figured top. A simply awesome Les Paul. Gibson Custom's 20th Anniversary specifications include a one-piece rosewood fingerboard, KlusonGäó Deluxe machine heads, hot-hide glue neck fit, a Historic Truss Rod assembly with no tubing, accurate body and fingerboard binding colour and Custom Buckers created in the image of the original PAFs- in this case double black in the bridge and nickel in the neck. The 2014 spec takes this one step further with the use of hide glue for the fingerboard.

The Custom Buckers accurately recreate the original PAFs of the late '50s, using Alnico III magnets and unequal turns of 42 AWG wire in each coil for that characteristic PAF "bite." These pickups clean up beautifully at the guitar's volume controls, while Bumble Bee tone caps assist in that warm, singing "woman tone" when you roll back the tone controls. To top it all off, the 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue plays superbly right out of its Custom Shop hardshell case thanks to a trip through one of Gibson's state-of-the-art Plek machines before it leaves the Custom Shop floor.
