In collaboration with our friends at the Gibson Custom Shop We are thrilled to present the New Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue "The Ultimate" in Washed Cherry Sunburst. The latest entry to the Made-to-Measure TRG Stringer series pays tribute to the instruments made at the now defunct Northern Prairie Music in the mid to late 70's which are near and dear to our hearts.
This '59 features a hand picked top, a Zebra unpotted custom bucker in the neck and a double classic white unpotted custom bucker in the bridge. We've left the aged Nickel covers on the pickups creating an "Easter Egg" for the owner to open if he chooses. (Note if you would like us to remove the covers before shipping, we're happy to do that.) This one also features an Ebony stinger and Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aging.
If you are looking for "The Ultimate" '59 Les Paul this is the one for you! We are an authorized Gibson dealer and as such this one ships with a full manufacturers warranty along with a pro setup from our in house tech. See below for more details and specifications.
