Gibson Custom 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS Electric Guitar with Case, Iced Tea Burst

The Closest Thing to a Real 1960 Les Paul Standard

Gibson's 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue is as close as you'll get to a perfectly preserved 1960 Les Paul Standard — all without the vintage tax and setup nightmares. This iconic single-cut is a spot-on reproduction of the slim-necked, burst-finished Standard as it stood in stores the farewell year of its original run. Its top-tier tonewoods (mahogany/maple/rosewood) and handwired electronics are the same recipe that has inspired catalogs of hits and generations of guitarists — Clapton to McCartney — worldwide. Historic features and appointments include PAF Custombucker Alnico III pickups with CTS pots and paper-in-oil caps, a hide-glued 1960 SlimTaper neck, and single-line/double-ring vintage Kluson tuners. A period-correct VOS nitrocellulose lacquer finish completes the package. If you want all that an original 1960 Les Paul has to offer, you'll appreciate this superb reproduction. From a neck and fretboard attached with hide glue to the use of an original-spec truss rod and cover, we're talking about an accurate reproduction down to the last detail. Gibson even analyzed the vintage plastics on the Kluson tuners at the molecular level to ensure accurate reproductions. 

Custombucker pickups deliver vintage PAF tone
Gibson Custom paid just as much attention to this 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue's electronics as they did its aesthetics. Beginning with vintage CTS potentiometers and paper-in-oil capacitors, every part of its internal signal path was designed to give you absolutely dead-on 1960 Les Paul tone. Of course, it's next to impossible to find genuine vintage PAFs (even for Gibson). Instead, this Historic 1960 Les Paul sports a pair of Gibson's Custombucker Alnico III humbuckers — some of the most historically accurate PAF copies ever made.

Vintage Original Sheen finish, for the look and feel of a classic
Gibson Custom's Vintage Original Sheen finish option comes standard on Custom Shop Historic Reissue models. The VOS finish package includes lightly aged parts that impart an authentic vintage patina. The nitrocellulose finished it buffed to a light matte appearance, giving a look and feel of a guitar that has been lovingly played and cared for over the years.
