Every detail - from the hide glue construction to the single-line Kluson tuners?has been carefully chosen to match the original 1958 spec.
Its chunky 50s neck carve gives you that classic grip and sustain, while the unpotted Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups deliver warm, articulate tones with vintage bite.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionMurphy Lab Light Aging for vintage character
The Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS features Light Aging by the Murphy Lab, giving the guitar a gently worn look and feel that’s remarkably close to an original late-’50s Burst. This process includes subtle lacquer checking, hardware tarnishing, and finish wear that mirrors decades of natural use. This beauty offers a completely unique playing experience that'll satisfy that vintage itch.
Authentic 1958 neck profile and fret spec
True to original 1958 Les Pauls, this reissue sports a chunky 50s Rounded Medium C neck profile that provides exceptional grip and leverage, perfect for powerful bends and expressive vibrato. The Historic Gibson narrow/tall frets contribute to a classic feel, offering a resonant and dynamic playing experience. This neck profile provides an authentic vintage surface that celebrates the golden era of Gibson.
Premium tonewoods and vintage construction
This Les Paul reissue is built using time-honoured materials and techniques, including a two-piece plain maple top and a solid, lightweight mahogany back, joined with hot hide glue for maximum resonance. The long tenon neck joint enhances sustain and stability, just like the originals. Every part of the build reflects Gibson Custom Shop’s commitment to replicating the sound and response of a true vintage instrument.
Unpotted Custombuckers for true PAF tone
Loaded with a pair of unpotted Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups, this guitar delivers the airy, articulate, and harmonically rich tones that defined the golden era of Gibson humbuckers. With no wax potting, the pickups retain top-end detail and dynamic sensitivity, making them incredibly responsive to your pick attack and volume control. These are among the most accurate PAF recreations Gibson has ever offered.
Period-correct hardware and aesthetic detail
Every piece of hardware and plastic on the 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS has been crafted to vintage-correct spec, from the Royalite binding and cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays to the lightweight aluminium stop bar and aged nickel ABR-1 bridge. Even the switch tip is made from amber Catalin, just like the originals. The result is a visually and sonically faithful reissue that lives up to the legend of the Burst.
