2011 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul 1959 Reissue Standard 59 Iced Tea Burst Historic R9

2011 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul 1959 Reissue Standard 59 Iced Tea Burst Historic R9 A reissue by Gibson Custom Shop of one of the most expensive guitars of the last century - the 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard, whose original owners were and are world-famous guitarists like Slash (Guns N' Roses), Kirk Hammett (Metallica), Gary Moore, Joe Perry (Aerosmith), .... and this list could go on indefinitely. And naturally, collectors own the originals. This Custom Shop reissue features artificial Heavy Aged wear, as if the guitar were really from '59, 60 years old! The wear includes scuffs in areas of active play, "spiderwebbing" in the lacquer, including the headstock, etc. In general, such artificial battle scars decorate this guitar. At the same time, the guitar has had only one owner, a collector, so the guitar has remained in new condition, having been plugged in only a few times at home.
