2008 Gibson Custom GLOSS 1958 Les Paul - Faded Tobacco Sunburst
|
|
You know you want it - just give in before someone else does. :-) New 2008 Gibson Les Paul '58 Reissue in a Faded Tobacco Sunburst with the rare GLOSS finish (not VOS). The gloss finishes are rare and are offered with unaged hardware and unaged gloss finish, which is a premium upcharge over VOS - it is a more expensive finish to produce. This is probably the most beautiful faded tobacco '58 I've seen yet. The gloss finish is just the icing on the cake - this guitar is stunning. Nice top grain, fantastic burst with nice gradient transition of colors.The mahogany back on this particular guitar has a very nice grain pattern to it - just beautiful. Great feeling neck with a nicely colored fingerboard. Neck size is real comfortable and not too large at all - very comfortable to play. Resonant and big sounding guitar. Sounds absolutely great and will make someone quite happy. This guitar weighs 9.55 pounds. I find I prefer the tone of the reissues in the 9+ pound range. All Gibson Custom guitars feature Plek laser fret leveling, Comes with accessory pack (not shown in pictures) including cable, polishing cloth, picks, truss rod tool, Gibson Custom case, certificate of authenticity, all hang tags and original shipping box, just like it left the Gibson Custom Shop. Switch tip located in small plastic bag along with the hangtags. The 2008 models now come with a certificate in a nice booklet format, which fits in the case compartment. Note: it seems that Gibson is now transitioning to using D'Addario brand strings. The last several guitars I've received have all had these strings. You will know them by the colored ball-ends.
