GIBSON CS 1957 Les Paul Custom Reissue 3-Pickup VOS Ebony
Electric Guitar | Product code:
HN216213
There are few electric guitars that can be said to be as classic or legendary as the Les Paul model from American manufacturer Gibson.The 1957 Les Paul Custom Reissue 3-Pickup VOS Ebony is a historically authentic "reissue" model from the Gibson Custom Shop that harks back to the 1957 design.
The body, carved from a single piece of mahogany, is adorned with a dark ebony finish. A special VOS (Vintage Original Specs) finish gives the guitar the authentic look and feel of the originals. A solid ebony fingerboard fitted with twenty-two frets (Historic Medium-Jumbo) is glued to the mahogany neck. Orientation around the fingerboard surface is facilitated by pearl position blocks (1950s Pattern Mother of Pearl).
The sound of the instrument is provided by three Custombucker Alnico III humbuckers. Two volume potentiometers, two tone controls and a three-position pickup switch are used to adjust the sound. Stable tuning is ensured by the attachment of the strings in the Kluson Waffleback mechanism and through the ABR-1 bridge in the stringing system. The period authenticity is underlined by all the materials/components used and their workmanship.
The guitar comes in a case with a certificate of authenticity.
