Exceptional Guitars

Gibson Custom Shop represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sonic excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson's heritage through precision, authenticity, and meticulous attention to detail.

The 1958 Les Paul Standard reissue features all the meticulous historical construction methods of the celebrated 1959 reissues, with a few historically accurate specification differences that allow it to stand on its own. Like the 1958 originals, it has narrow frets that allow the fingerboard wood to be heard more clearly in the tonal profile. It also has a round, thick neck profile for full feel and maximum bending effect. And finally, it has a beautiful solid maple top; each one is unique and full of character. Available in a variety of classic sunburst finishes.
