Gibson Custom Limited 59 Les Paul Standard Faded Peach Burst Heavy Aged 961622

Serial: 961622
Weight: 8 lb 6.7 oz

This Limited Edition 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue pairs one of Gibson Custom’s most celebrated builds with a hand-selected AAA figured maple top and a beautifully faded Peach Burst finish.

At just 8 lb 6.7 oz, this example starts with a lightweight one-piece solid mahogany body with no weight relief, topped with figured maple and finished in Murphy Lab Heavy Aged nitrocellulose lacquer. Extensive checking, softened edges, and authentic-looking play wear give the Faded Peach Burst the character of a well-played vintage Les Paul.

The mahogany neck features Gibson Custom’s Authentic 1959 profile and a long neck tenon, paired with a rosewood fingerboard, 12" radius, reissue medium-jumbo frets, celluloid trapezoid inlays, and a period-correct nylon nut.

A pair of Custombucker Alnico 4 humbuckers provides the voice of the guitar, paired with the traditional two-volume, two-tone control layout and three-way toggle. An ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, Stop Bar tailpiece, Kluson Deluxe tuners, and aged nickel hardware complete the vintage-inspired package.

A Lifton reissue hardshell case and Certificate of Authenticity are included.
