Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Iced Tea Burst 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS carries Gibson Custom’s Historic Series approach to recreating the 1959 Les Paul Standard. Research extends to closely examined details and reengineered parts composition. It is a right-handed, six-string solid body with a lightweight mahogany body, figured maple top, mahogany neck, and rosewood fingerboard. Two CustomBuckers work with a three-way pickup switch and four volume-and-tone controls. The fixed ABR-1 Tune-o-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece are paired with a 24.75-inch scale, 22 frets, and an included hardshell case.
