Most notably, it features a fast-playing slim neck profile, beloved by the many famous musicians who played ‘60 Bursts including Eric Clapton, Joe Walsh, and Paul McCartney.

It also has “reflector” Volume & Tone knobs and wider “double-ring” tuner tips. The Custom Shop 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue is a clone of the originals from the hide-glue construction to the chemically re-engineered plastic parts. Each one is built with extreme care, reverence and attention to detail by expert Custom Shop craftspeople who are committed to providing an authentic vintage ownership experience.
