The 56 Les Paul / R6 Reissue has been a staple of the Custom Shop (and many guitarists collections) for years – and for good reason. They are incredibly versatile instruments with a classic look, suitable for a myriad of playing styles and performance situations. And lets face it: you cant go wrong with P-90s!
This 2008 Custom Shop example is overall very clean, displaying onlyminimal honest player wear. The frets are in great shape and sit on abeautiful 12 radius Rosewood board and 50s-style C shape Mahogany neck. Combined with a Mahogany body and Maple top, the guitar weighs in at 9 lbs 7 ozand comes complete withits original hardshell case.
