Gibson / Les Paul Collector's Choice Pearly Gates - Gibbons, Aged Numbered Series, # 43/50 / 2009 / 59 Sunburst / Guitar For Sale
In 2009, the Gibson Custom shop built a limited run of Pearly Gates model guitars. These “inspired by” models were based on the legendary 1959 burst (SN 9 1171) owned and played by Billy F. Gibbons. Pearly’s singular voice can be heard on every ZZ Top album to date, and for years was front and center for countless tours and live appearances.
In the beginning of the process, Pat Foley and Edwin Wilson from the Gibson Custom Shop were allowed to inspect the original Pearly for a period of several days. Using digital scans, photographs and measurements, a total of 350 guitars were produced in the following designations: 250 VOS, 50 aged (by Tom Murphy), and 50 aged and signed by BFG.
THIS IS #43 of the aged series.
