One of the best values of the Norlin era are the Les Paul "Reissues." This particular model is patterned off of the Les Paul Special and was designated the "55." Its construction is very similar to the 1950s model, but has a bolder headstock shape and a more modern sunburst pattern to its nitro finish. This guitar has had its tuner and strap button changed, but it still has one of the best neck profiles that Gibson has made, so all can be forgiven.

Comes with original hard shell 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.
