Product Description
The 1957 Les Paul Reissue is a recreation of the Les Paul that introduced the world to a solid body guitar with humbucking pickups. To put it simply, the history of music would not be the same if it were not for the ’57 Les Paul. The evolution from P-90 pickups to humbuckers™ brought the end to 60-cycle hum. The ‘57 Les Paul became the blueprint for electric guitars with its huge sustain, paired with a set of humbuckers, that cemented its place in music history. The artisans at Gibson Custom make sure every detail in this recreation is just like original examples that have come through the Custom Shop. From historically accurate neck profiles to the fine details of the Patent Applied For-cloned pickups, these guitars from Gibson Custom are the pinnacle of craftsmanship in electric guitars.
This ’57 Les Paul includes a reissue Lifton™ hardshell case with a brown exterior and pink interior as well as a Gibson Custom Certificate of Authenticity.
