Built using digitally scanned neck and body data, vintage-correct construction methods, and hand-selected woods, this limited run model delivers exceptional resonance, rich harmonic complexity, and the unmistakable response of a great late-’50s Les Paul. From the beautifully figured maple top to the soul-stirring Custombucker pickups, this is a world-class Custom Shop instrument aimed squarely at serious players and collectors.
