We are very lucky to be offering this 2012 Gibson Custom Shop Paul Kossoff 59′ Les Paul in a stunning VOS finish. Only 250 of these were made in a very limited run in 2012 that recreates Paul Kossoff’s original 1959 Les Paul Standard. Borrowing the priceless original, the Custom Shop digitally scanned its dimensions, reproducing the full C profile of the neck to the most accurate detail. Finished in a nitrocelluose ‘Vintage Old Stock’ finish, this has very minimal wear and gives the owner a chance to put their own wear on it and make it their own. Faithful to the smallest detail, this instrument is a great investment if you are a fan Kossoff or even just fond of Les Pauls and Gibson’s history.
This particular guitar is weighing in at 9.398 Ibs.
