Gibson Les Paul 1959 VOS Iced Tea '10

Sold


Beautiful R9 in Iced Tea VOS finish. Very light (8 lbs 5.3 oz), great attack and killer sustain. It has a very subtle, but very 3D flame, and it does have great resemblance to Billy Gibbons' Pearly Gates. Very nice, fat, round tone, with that rock taste that makes the Les Paul stand out in modern music history.

The Iced Tea color is beautifully executed, very vintage-like, and certainly does get close to many original burst's fading. The reduced weight is fantastic, and it does not compromise tone or sustain at all. It weights nearly the same as the Brock/DaPra Burst (9 0913), so this in fact historically correct.

Great chance to get your hands on a great R9, with fantastic features: fantastic sound guaranteed and within very reasonable pricing. It is in exceptional condition, only showing signs of very, very minor playwear. Frets show no wear whatsoever.

Includes OHSC, COA and case candy.
