A superb example of a 2007 Gibson Custom Shop Historic Collection ’58 Les Paul Reissue, finished in classic Washed Cherry Sunburst. Built during Gibson’s pre–True Historic era, this R8 delivers the core elements of a late-’50s Gibson, solid mahogany construction, a plain maple top, and a substantial 50s neck profile, paired with the slightly more modern electronics of the period.

Known for their resonance, sustain, and understated aesthetic, 2007 R8s are highly regarded for their build quality and authentic feel, with a lively acoustic response and warm, articulate tones from a set of Custombucker pickups which were retro fitted from the factory Burstbuckers (not included) providing the guitar with a more vintage tone - clearer, more open, and less compressed, a lower-output "airy" tone.
