This limited-edition 60th Anniversary model celebrates the iconic 1960 Les Paul Standard, which has shaped music across genres for six decades. The artisans at Gibson Custom Shop have proudly recreated the experience of owning a priceless original thanks to painstaking attention to detail and tireless study of vintage examples, closely following the three distinct versions seen within 1960. Those made in the first third of the year (V1) had the same specs as 1959 models, these come in Antique burst while the middle third (V2) had slightly thinner (medium) neck profiles these come in Deep Dark Cherry Burst), The final third (V3) features the slim taper neck profile and this batch comes in the same Dark Burst color as the original DutchBurst guitar that Robbert discovered right here in the Netherlands . Included is a 60th Anniversary switch plate, a commemorative Certificate of Authenticity booklet and a vintage replica hardshell case.
