The Gibson Custom Shop PSL '58 Les Paul Standard Reissue Gloss captures the unmistakable look, feel, and tone of one of the most celebrated electric guitars ever built. Finished in a stunning Vintage Cherry Tea Burst nitrocellulose lacquer, this premium reissue faithfully recreates the legendary 1958 Les Paul with exceptional attention to vintage-correct detail and craftsmanship.
The foundation of its rich, resonant voice begins with a 2-piece plain maple top expertly joined to a one-piece lightweight mahogany body using traditional hide glue construction. With no weight relief, this guitar delivers the authentic sustain, punch, and harmonic complexity that made late-'50s Les Pauls legendary.
The solid mahogany neck features a comfortable '50s Rounded Medium C profile, paired with a 12" radius Indian rosewood fingerboard fitted with 22 Historic Gibson Narrow/Tall frets and elegant aged cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays. A long hide glue-fitted tenon enhances resonance and vintage authenticity, while the nylon nut and vintage-spec dimensions provide a familiar, broken-in feel.
Electronics are equally faithful to the originals, featuring a pair of Custombucker Alnico III unpotted humbuckers with authentic nickel silver covers. Wired with CTS 500K audio taper potentiometers, paper-in-oil capacitors, and Switchcraft components, this setup delivers articulate cleans, dynamic midrange, and the warm, open PAF-inspired character that responds beautifully to every nuance of your playing.
Vintage-correct hardware includes a No-Wire ABR-1 bridge, lightweight aluminum stop bar tailpiece, Kluson Single Line, Single Ring tuners, nickel hardware throughout, and period-accurate appointments including Royalite binding, butyrate plastics, amber Catalin switch tip, and authentic 1950s truss rod construction.
Complete with a Brown/Pink Lifton Reissue 5-Latch hardshell case, the Gibson Custom Shop PSL '58 Les Paul Standard Reissue Gloss is an exceptional recreation of a golden-era classic, offering vintage aesthetics, uncompromising craftsmanship, and the iconic tone that continues to define generations of music.
