Vintage soul meets custom-shop detail in this Tone Shop Guitars Made 2 Measure ’58 Les Paul Standard Reissue, authentically crafted to recreate the magic of Gibson’s golden era—with a unique twist.

Crafted with the same historic specs and construction techniques as the fabled '59, this ’58 Reissue sets itself apart with a few key differences: narrow/tall frets for greater fingerboard articulation, a chunky 50s rounded neck profile for classic feel and bend leverage, and a Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aged nitro finish that simulates decades of gentle playwear. Understated, soulful, and full of tone-rich detail, this guitar is a player's dream with collector-worthy vibes.
