The GIBSON Custom Shop 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS Tangerine Burst #04495 is a faithful and highly sought-after replica of the iconic Les Paul Standard, capturing the essence of its vintage sound and style.

Overview

The year 1960 marked the final production run of the iconic Les Paul Standard “Burst” models, which were introduced between 1958 and 1960 before being replaced by the SG design in 1961. With only 635 units produced, this guitar is among the most sought-after on the vintage instrument market.
