Gibson Les Paul 59 Reissue VOS (2013)
Gibson Les Paul 59 Reissue VOS (2013)
This 2013 Les Paul R9 VOS in Darkburst is a visual treat and sounds awesome too. The top with wonderful bookmatching, a 3D-like appearance and a progression of the flame coming out differently from each angle from the light gold tone to the very dark amber shading at the edges. The 59-medium neck profile fills the hand well, fits great in the hand and can be played in all positions. Built in here are the Gibson Custombuckers with their beautiful, airy and open sound. At the neck pickup we come out again and again with Gary Moore, fat sustain and this light flute tone. The bridge pickup carries through well without sounding too aggressive. Classic sounds à la Bonamassa, ZZ Top or even Paul Kossoff are represented here. The general condition of the guitar is excellent, only some small play marks can be noted in the varnish and on the frets. The previous owner had changed the pickups for a short time, but the original Custombuckers are now back in (neatly soldered, not recognizable). If you are looking for a '59 Les Paul with a particularly nice top, classic Paula sound and a comfortable weight, this is the guitar for you.
