2008 Gibson Custom Shop Historic ’59 Reissue Les Paul (R9), in Brock Burst finish with highly flamed maple top - Very rare finish with this guitar being 1 of 12 special ordered from Gibson by Greg Golden at Bizarre Guitar, Reno. Purchased directly from the store by a UK collector in 2008 this guitar has never been on a shop floor and is still as it left the Gibson factory.
"Gibson Custom Shop's 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue is not just a tribute to the priceless original models -- it's a clone of them. From laser-scanned dimensions to chemically-recreated plastics, every element has been rendered in unbelievable detail. It represents the culmination of decades of work by Custom Shop's expert team -- a tireless quest to bring accuracy and authenticity to the hands of fans. It’s the definition of cool, and it's the best representation of the 1959 Les Paul Standard since the Gibson Custom Shop began making Historic Reissues over twenty-five years ago."
This stunning Brock Burst R9 is in mint NOS condition – it comes complete with original hang tags, switch tip and scratch plate that have never been fitted to the guitar, Certificate of Authenticity and its brown Lifton Gibson hard case. A brilliant collectors piece for fans of Les Paul bursts.
