An impeccably crafted recreation of a rock and roll legend.

The Gibson Custom 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue brings a coveted vintage model into the present day. With its Slim Taper neck and P.A.F.-style humbuckers, this Les Paul provides the playability and tone that defined the electric guitar's early rock years. The 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue starts with a one-piece mahogany body and figured maple top, a combination that produces a clear, balanced tone with singing sustain. The Slim Taper mahogany neck has an easy, fast feel, allowing intricate solos and complex chords with speed and precision.

P.A.F-Style Pickups for Classic Rock Tone

The 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue features Gibson's P.A.F-style humbucking pickups, which provide the warm, articulate tone of original late-'50s models. The neck pickup has an airy, vocal quality perfect for bluesy melodies and jazz chords. The bridge pickup delivers a cutting tone ideal for solos, with a touch of vintage grit. Blend the pickups together for a range of classic rock tones from creamy to crunchy.

V.O.S. Finish and Hardware for Authentic Look and Feel

Gibson's V.O.S. (Vintage Original Spec) finish gives the 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue a gently aged appearance, as if it's been lovingly played for decades. The thin nitrocellulose lacquer allows the wood to resonate freely, enhancing sustain and acoustic resonance. V.O.S. hardware includes Gibson's ABR-1 Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece and vintage-style tuners. These parts look and feel like originals from 1960, down to the patina and play in the mechanisms.

Vintage-Accurate Appointments

From the hide-glue construction to the era-correct hardware, no detail was overlooked in recreating the 1960 Les Paul Standard. The tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece provide rock-solid tuning stability and sustain. Vintage-style tuners with double-ring tips complete the period-correct aesthetic. The control knobs are reissues of the original "reflector" knobs, named for the aluminum inserts. All electronics are hand-wired for an authentic vintage tone with no loss of signal quality.
