This guitar has become the Holy Grail of guitars in the minds of professionals and collectors the world over.

As an icon throughout the music industry, not only has this guitar become a legend, it has attained the highest most acclaimed value in quality and investment.

This year marks the 50th Anniversary of the 1960 Les Paul Standard and the Gibson Custom Shop has been gearing up for the celebration since 2009 when they made 21 improvements to the Historic Reissues.These improvements include everything from the gold top-hat control knobs with dial pointers to the molded bell-shaped truss rod cover to the period correct cream pickguard and nickel tuners with green buttons. This 1960 Reissue Les Paul Standard is the most exact recreation of their legendary predecessor ever produced. With the release of this new model, Gibson Custom takes the art of recreating the company's legendary Holy Grail to an entirely new level. Every subtle detail of this model has been painstakingly reproduced, and nothing has been left to chance. The 2009 Gibson Custom Shop 1960 Reissue Les Paul Standard reaches back into time and delivers the absolute ultimate in vintage guitar recreation.

This guitar is the latest and the greatest Gibson has to offer. It is extremely rare and extremely beautiful with a FAT MONSTER WIDE BOOK-MATCHED RIBBON FLAMED Maple top like this. It's this kind of raw wood, "the good wood" that captured the mojo of the legendary Les Paul Standard! Found in less than 1 in 1,000 trees, this kind of Flame Maple is very hard in texture and reflective, capturing stress between the flames of grain and producing a loud, powerful projective sound. This guitar is extremely resonate and extremely light, weighing in at 8 lbs 10 ozs. She's light on your back and powerful with tons of that mid range GROWL! This guitar's got soul! This is the guitar that was chosen from all the others for display in our store. So, she's been played but never owned and there is one small dent in the finish that you'll only be able to see if you get out your microscope. This guitar comes complete with the Gibson Custom case, certificate of authenticity, and all the MOJO you can handle!

There's nothing to think about! Buy it now or you'll kick yourself a year from now!
