Tone Shop Guitars' Dealer's Choice Chambered '58 Les Paul in Candy Apple Blue!

The 1958 Les Paul™ Standard Reissue features all the painstaking historic construction methods of the famous '59 Reissues with a few historically-accurate spec differences that allow it to stand on its own. Like the 1958 originals, it has narrow frets which help more of the fingerboard wood to be heard in the tone profile. It also has a round, chunky neck profile for a full feel and maximum bending leverage. This Made to Measure model is a stunner, complete with a Chambered body, 57 Classic Pickups, and a Candy Apple Blue finish.
