The Gibson Custom Shop Billy Gibbons 1959 “Pearly Gates” Les Paul Standard is a legendary limited edition reissue, meticulously recreating Billy Gibbons’ original iconic 1959 Les Paul. Produced in 2009, this VOS model is one of only 150 with the Custom Shop Vintage Original Spec (VOS) finish of the total 250 only worldwide and they rarely become available , crafted with unparalleled attention to detail, from the highly figured maple top to the faded sunburst finish.
With genuine Billy Gibbons BurstBucker pickups, authentic hardware, and full original case and documentation, this collector-grade Les Paul delivers the classic Les Paul tone, vintage vibe, and collectible status that makes it extremely rare and sought-after.
50 of these guitars were aged and signed by BG himself and haven’t been seen again plus another 50 Murphy lab : this guitar has the exact and famous Pearly Gates finish to the top (neither a burst or a flame or quilt : the most unique top of any Les Paul ‘59 - in fact that’s the reason for its nickname the Pearly Gates : the doors to Heaven!) and the exact pickups that Billy used in the guitar to get his amazing and distinctive tone and made this guitar his most treasured and used in his 50 plus year career. A True Treasure and collectors dream
