The Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Standard VOS pays homage to one of the most iconic guitars in history while incorporating over six decades of innovation. Crafted with precision, this guitar captures the essence of vintage Les Paul design and sound, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern enhancements. The body features the classic combination of a Mahogany back and a Plain Maple top, which together deliver a warm, resonant tone with clarity and sustain.
The VOS (Vintage Original Spec) Iced Tea Burst finish enhances its visual appeal, mimicking the look of a well-maintained vintage guitar with mild patina and faded hardware for an authentic appearance. This meticulous finish ensures the wood can resonate freely, contributing to the instrument's tonal richness. A Mahogany neck with a Chunky "C" profile provides a substantial yet comfortable grip, perfect for players seeking a vintage feel. The Rosewood fingerboard, adorned with Cellulose Trapezoid inlays, adds a luxurious touch.
Key dimensions, such as a 12" radius, 22 narrow tall frets, and the signature 24.75" scale length, ensure smooth playability and a familiar Gibson feel. One of the guitar's standout features is its Custom Bucker pickups, renowned for their historically accurate recreation of the original PAF (Patent Applied For) humbuckers. These pickups produce a rich, harmonically complex tone, capturing the essence of classic Les Paul sound. They are wired to precise controls, allowing players to sculpt their tone with exceptional detail.
This Les Paul is a testament to the timeless design envisioned by Les Paul himself, offering a balance of vintage aesthetics, historical accuracy, and modern playability.
The guitar been fully set up by our in-house technician, and includes its original lifton-style hard case plus cerfiticate.
