This Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Reissue still features the long-tenon neck joint, which delivers an amazing sustain and a warm tone. It also features hide glues for neck and fingerboard joint. The mahogany body is stained with aniline dye, which enchances the mahogany grain in the best detail possible. The truss rod in the mahogany neck is unsheathed from its tube encasing from previous years. These are changes which we feel increases the resonance of the instrument, and the hide-glue also is helpful in removing the neck of the guitar for repair without damaging the surrounding wood of the body. The Kluson Deluxe tuners have been redesigned, with a proper vintage shape and color. Also, the fretboard and body binding has been darkened color-wise for a more vintage-accurate look.
