Description: Up for sale, a 2018 Gibson Custom Shop Historic 1959 Les Paul Standard R9 in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original Lifton hardshell case, CoA, and hangtags. A Gibson Custom Shop Historic model that faithfully replicates the myriad finer points of a 1959 Les Paul Standard, this R9 features a dimensional carved two-piece tiger flame maple top, finished in Royal Tea Burst. Lightweight at 8lbs 9oz, this Les Paul is loaded with its factory pair of CustomBuckers, Gibson's latest highly praised PAF iteration. Featuring Alnico III magnets, these low-medium output pickups have all the chirp, honk, and bloom a player could want. The pickup set is dynamic, highly detailed, and balanced, comfortably versatile with any playing style. The bridge pickup has plenty of bite and growl, while the neck pickup has the buttery girth and power one expects without sacrificing clarity. This Custom Shop Historic 1959 Les Paul Standard R9 has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The original Lifton-style aged hardshell case with pink plush interior is included, along with the CoA and all hangtags.
