Our Take:
If you like a '59 Les Paul - and really, who doesn't? - but with a slimmer neck, look no further than this 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue. Sharing much of its DNA with its older brother the '59, the '60 LP was a guitar of choice for a host of famous guitar players, and thanks to the Gibson Custom Shop, you can see why for yourself. It rips just as hard as a '59, and looks absolutely stunning, from the Washed Cherry Burst finish to the "reflector" Volume and Tone knobs.
Gibson's Take:
1960 was the last year for the original Les Paul Standard, nearly identical to a 1959 model except for a few specs. Most notably, it features a fast-playing slim neck profile, beloved by the many famous musicians who played '60 Bursts including Eric Clapton, Joe Walsh, and Paul McCartney. It also has "reflector" Volume & Tone knobs and wider "double-ring" tuner tips. The Custom Shop 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue is a clone of the originals from the hide-glue construction to the chemically re-engineered plastic parts. Each one is built with extreme care, reverence and attention to detail by expert Custom Shop craftspeople who are committed to providing an authentic vintage ownership experience.
