| Gibson Custom Historic 1959 Les Paul Standard Vintage Original Spec Electric Guitar (with Case) $ 5699.0  The only major change to the Les Paul Standard in 1959 was the addition of wider, fatter, "jumbo" frets, which facilitated more dramatic bends. The real force of this change was not felt until the late 1960s, when rock and blues players like Eric Clapton, Mike Bloomfield, and Peter Green began to discover the fat, warm voice of the '59 Standard. This moment in history marked the beginning of the idealization of the '59 Les Paul as the Holy Grail of guitars in the minds of professionals, collectors, and weekend warriors. Now part of Gibson's proprietary new Vintage Original Spec series -- the next step in their journey toward perfection. |
| Gibson Custom Historic 1957 Les Paul Custom 3PU Vintage Original Spec Electric Guitar (with Case) $ 4999.0  In 1957, "Patent Applied For" humbuckers became standard issue on both the Les Paul Model and the Les Paul Custom. To go along with its already upscale appointments, the Les Paul Custom was made available with either two or three of these quiet, powerful new pickups. Now part of Gibson's proprietary new Vintage Original Spec series -- the next step in the journey toward perfection. This version of the Gibson 1957 Les Paul Custom VOS has 3 pickups, for extra output and more tonal variation. |
| Gibson Custom Historic 1958 Les Paul Standard Vintage Original Spec Electric Guitar (with Case) $ 3699.0  During the late 1950's in an effort to boost sales of the Les Paul Model, Gibson abandoned the familiar gold finish and used a translucent, cherry sunburst finish which showed off the figured maple tops that were often used. The renamed Les Paul Standard made its debut in 1958. VOS series guitars are faithful recreations of Gibson's iconic models and capture the richness of a Gibson guitar that has been aging and gently played over the last 50 years. Now part of Gibson's proprietary new Vintage Original Spec series -- the next step in their journey toward perfection. |
