The 1958 Les Paul Standard Reissue features all the painstaking historic construction methods of the famous ’59 Reissues, with a few period-correct spec differences that allow it to stand on its own.

Like the 1958 originals, it features narrow frets which help more of the fingerboard wood to be heard in the tonal profile. It also has a round, chunky neck profile that provides a full feel and maximum bending leverage. It has a beautiful plain maple top too — full of spellbinding character.

The Murphy Lab ‘Ultra Light Aged’ finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of subtle playing wear — giving it the unique character, vibe and feel of an original example from Gibson’s “Golden Era”.

More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Les Paul

A Les Paul is a solid body electric guitar known for its thick, powerful tone, strong sustain, and classic single-cutaway shape. It is commonly associated with warm, rich sounds and is well suited to rock, blues, jazz, and heavier styles, thanks to its mahogany body, carved top, and typically humbucker-loaded pickups that deliver depth, punch, and smooth overdrive characteristics.
