From 1952 we have a killer Gibson Les Paul that has been converted to a 1959 spec Les Paul Standard in a beautiful Cherry Sunburst finish. With regard to the specs, this guitar has received a neck set, refret, new nut, swapped parts and plastics to period correct late 50's parts, added PAFs with replaced covers, and replaced bumblebee caps while maintaining its original pots. This guitar weighs in at 8.6lbs and plays and sounds as good as any real burst we have had come through our doors. This has an extremely comfortable medium C neck profile and the fret job has been executed very well for perfect playing. This guitar was converted meticulously and with a precise attention to detail you are not likely to find elsewhere.

This guitar comes with a newer Gibson Custom Shop hardshell case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
