2005 Gibson Custom Shop R8 Les Paul 1958 Standard Reissue

An R8 Les Paul is a guitar well-known to many. A piece of axe in the form of a 1958 vintage replica from Gibson's Custom Shop. Yet, it continues to amaze us with how well it rocks and fits multiple genres.

It was made in 2005, unchambered, one piece of mahogany. Equipped with hand-wound Burstbuckers #1 and #2. It plays raw - no muddiness, all about the rockin' Gibson midrange. A beautiful "quack" in the middle position. Intonates in any location of the fretboard.
It is in perfect condition, has no damages, and is a real gem. Comes with a case, certificate, and all factory accessories. This is a real bargain - a guitar in great condition and playing well.
