Everyone now knows it by now, ...one of the most sought-after Les Pauls, the Gibson Les Paul 58 Slash First Standard in the strictly limited aged version. For us it's still one of the best guitars to ever come out of the Gibson Custom Shop. Whether as a player or investment, this guitar is one of the absolute Gibson highlights. It is the exact replica of Saul Hudson's aka Slash' '58 First Standard. Even the Gibson Custom Shop says it was the most complex project to date in terms of aging and attention to detail. These Paulas have long been sold out worldwide and prices are constantly rising. But the guitar not only guarantees the best value retention, it is also a top player with the best sound and a great look. The aging, personally applied by master Tom Murphy, is truly unparalleled. Countless hairline cracks placed meticulously by hand, lots of signs of play and simply super authentic! Every little detail of Slash's original '58 is meticulously reproduced here. Fantastic neck with a pleasant Medium 59 profile, not at all as thick or clunky as some 58 necks. Plays fantastically, especially in conjunction with an ideal weight of 3930 grams, which creates a perfect combination of the very best playability and sufficient swinging mass. ...and of course in terms of sound Guns 'n' Roses send greetings: already played dry, loud and extremely resonant, the specially wound Custombuckers let the sparks fly on the amp. Smacking, frying, but also transparent and with perfect string separation. Pure Slash – “Welcome to the Jungle”, “Sweet Child O’ Mine” and “Mr. Brownstone” at their best! We are pleased that we can offer you this legendary, iconic guitar including the frets in absolute collector's condition.
