A very special and limited 59 Reissue from the Gibson Custom Shop. This guitar features a Brazilian Rosewood fretboard and is only One of 50 in this finish, Tom's Dark Burst. This guitar features a hand selected AAAA Flame top and it shows, the figuring on this top is incredible. We've spent some time with real 'Bursts and this is as close as you can get.
The Murphy Lab treatment on this guitar is next level as well. Somewhere around a medium relic, these feature special attention to detail and have an individual quality you can't get just from any reissue. The A5 Magnet Custombuckers have a great voice that's much fuller and punchier than some other variants. The neck on this guitar is true to a real '59, very comfortable with the perfect amount of shoulder.
The ABR-1 has been swapped on this guitar with a piece that Zach here at HVG hand relic'd himself, but the original will be included. A real special and rare piece you won't find just anywhere.
Includes Aged Lifton replica case and all COA/paperwork. Please email or call if you have questions about this piece.
