Gibson Les Paul 59 Collectors Choice CC #9 "Vic DaPra Believer Burst" (2014)

The CC #9 “Believer Burst”, limited to just 100 specimens, has always been one of the absolute highlights of the Collectors Choice series for us! These guitars are not only visually, but also sonically the absolute killer! The legendary Burst with the serial number 9-0850 from Vic DaPra served as the basis for the CC #9. It is considered one of the most beautiful Les Pauls ever built by Gibson. It is no coincidence that DaPra's book series, which provides a comprehensive overview of the original Les Pauls known today, bears the name of this fascinating guitar. And so this “Believer Burst” with the serial number 081 is an absolute dream: a beautifully grained top that looks different from every angle, perfect aging and fantastic colors. The whole thing is only surpassed by the sound of this gem. When you play it dry, you don't miss an amp at all. The guitar vibrates brilliantly and is really loud when played dry. Even unamplified you can hear that the guitar is beautifully differentiated with a wonderfully broad frequency spectrum. On the amp it then develops an absolute top tone: clear, open and fresh. The specially wound Custombuckers fit the guitar perfectly. It sings and smacks that it is a real joy. With the typical “Late 50s” neck and its perfect weight of only 3950 grams it is also wonderful to play. Incredible player with a killer look and the highest rarity and collector's value, which of course guarantees the very best value retention. Especially because Gibson's extremely high demands on the top of the CC#9 meant that not even the complete number could be built. So if you're looking for the ultimate Les Paul in top condition, where everything is just right, this is the one for you!
