Gibson Custom Shop 1960 Les Paul Special Doublecut Reissue Review & Demo
1960 Reissue of the Les Paul Special Doublecut
Les Paul Specials hold a special place in our hearts at the Zoo. Slab mahogany bodies, slim neck profiles, and two rockin' P-90s paired with a wraparound tailpiece...ingredients for a pretty awesome electric guitar if you ask us! Here we have a '60 Reissue made by the Gibson Custom Shop in a TV Yellow finish, light enough to see the grain in the mahogany.
