Gibson Custom Shop 1957 Les Paul Custom 2-Pickup VOS Electric Guitar Ebony

The hottest thing happening in 1957.

The Les Paul Custom VOS re-creates the Les Paul Custom as it was at a pivotal moment in its history the year when the PAF humbuckers became standard issue. These remarkable new pickups gave the Les Paul a thicker sound that was at the time especially unique. Like all VOS (Vintage Original Spec) Series instruments, the 1957 Les Paul Custom VOS is handcrafted for comfort and playability in the Gibson Custom Shop. The construction, neck profile, hardware, and electronics are period accurate, and a special nitrocellulose finish treatment gives it the patina of a gently aged vintage guitar. Includes Gibson Custom Shop case, a certificate of authenticity, and custom care kit.
