Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Standard Bordeaux Red Gloss (101)

The Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue in Bordeaux Red Gloss combines the legendary specifications of a '59 Burst with a striking custom color that stands apart from traditional sunbursts. Built with a hand-selected AAA figured maple top over a lightweight one-piece mahogany body, this Historic Reissue delivers the rich sustain, warmth, and dynamic response that have made the 1959 Les Paul one of the most revered electric guitars ever produced. The vibrant Bordeaux Red Gloss finish beautifully showcases the figured maple top, while the natural walnut-finished back and neck provide a classic contrast. A comfortable 1959 V1 Authentic Medium "Carmelita" neck profile, Indian rosewood fingerboard, and historically accurate construction deliver the unmistakable feel and performance of a late-'50s Les Paul.

Loaded with a pair of Custombucker Alnico III humbuckers, this Les Paul captures the articulate, dynamic voice of an original Burst. From warm, open cleans to harmonically rich overdrive and singing sustain, these unpotted pickups respond effortlessly to every nuance of your playing. Luxe Bumblebee capacitors, vintage-style wiring, and historic-spec hardware complete an instrument that pairs authentic '50s tone with an eye-catching, non-standard Custom Shop finish
