There are approximately 1400 original Les Paul "Burst"s in existence, and they regularly retail upwards of $300k. A logical response to supply and demand, Gibson makes faithful reproductions of these legendary solid body guitars of 1958,1959 and 1960. Each year represents different specs common to the majority of original examples. In the case of this guitar, a 1960 Reissue, the neck profile is a tad slimmer and the maple top is a little flamier than the 1958. This particular Gibson 1960 Reissue guitar underwent an overhaul by the "Historic Makeovers" team to a nitro lacquer that checks well (Dirty Lemon in shade), relic'ed it, and gave it parts that they felt were best suited: Throbak Pickups and Harness. What's more they put a Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard on it. All in all, a killer playing, accessible, holy grail guitar.
