Gibson / Custom Shop '58 Les Paul Standard VOS / 2021 / Lemon Burst / Guitar
Not often we get to do this but we’re coming smack bang up to date with this 2021 Gibson Custom Shop '58 Les Paul Standard VOS Lemon Burst
This guitar has a more subdued top that is gorgeously accentuated by the Lemon burst finish and goes quite a way to capturing some of the magic of a plain top. The guitar as a whole is in superb condition showing some mild signs of light use.
The neck and fretboard are in excellent condition with the vivid cherry finish showing off the mahogany to great effect. All plastics are in perfect condition. Seems the pickguard has never been fitted though the pilot hole is there.
Its a joy to play with a sublime ‘59 profile neck and the Custombucker pickups delivering a more authentic sound, definitely an unexpected bonus for such a wonderful instrument.
This is a great looking guitar which certainly captures that burst look. A great addition to any collection.
