2022 Gibson Custom Shop Historic Collection 1968 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS 60s Gold

The Les Paul Standard was introduced in 1952 as the signature model of guitarist Les Paul. In 1958, it was given a sunburst finish instead of the gold top finish that had previously graced Gibson's Golden Era, but the single-cut Les Paul-type body was replaced by an SG-style body in 1961, perhaps because it did not meet market demand. The single-cut Les Paul type body was replaced by the SG style body in 1961, and the Les Paul disappeared from the lineup.
The demand for Les Pauls increased as musicians of the time used them, and in 1968, Les Pauls were re-produced, but the specs were similar to the gold tops of the mid-1950s, rather than the popular bursts.

Gibson Custom Shop has succeeded in reproducing the model bearing the extremely rare and collectible crown inlay that was seen on the initial production lot in 1968. It is regrettable that it is already out of production.

The body is 2-piece maple top/1-piece mahogany back, and the neck is 1-piece solid mahogany with rosewood fingerboard. A large binding is wrapped around the cutaway that hides the maple top, and glued with glue (hide glue). Long tenon (Deep Joint) set neck.

The head angle is a slightly shallow 14 degrees with an angled Kluson Double Line/Double Ring "Gibson Deluxe" knob.
The neck shape is a slightly smaller "Authentic '68 Medium C-Shape" with "Medium-Jumbo" frets.
The bridge is a wired "ABR-1" with a nylon saddle, and the control knobs are gold hat knobs with metal tops. Missing metal top on front tone.

Two "Custom Soapbar P90" pickups are installed, which have a rich and expressive core, and the vintage curve CTS pots, Luxe Black Beauty Capacitors, and other electronic parts have been thoroughly reproduced in vintage style.

The frets have not worn down and the truss rod turns 90 degrees both tightened and loosened without any problems.
The 68 Les Paul Standard is no longer in production, so if you are looking for one, this is a great opportunity!

2022年製 Gibson Custom Shop Historic Collection 1968 Les Paul Standard Reissue VOS 60s Gold

1952年よりギタリストであるレス・ポール氏のシグネイチャーモデルとして登場したレスポール・スタンダード。年々仕様の変更があり、58年には以前のゴールド・トップ・フィニッシュからサンバースト・フィニッシュに変わりギブソンのゴールデン・エラを飾りますが、市場の需要と合わなかったのか、シングルカットのレスポール・タイプのボディは1961年にSGスタイルのボディへと変更され、その後レスポールはラインナップから姿を消します。
当時のミュージシャンがこぞってレスポールを使用したことで市場の需要が高まり、1968年にレスポールを再生産しましたがスペックは人気の高いバーストではなく、50年代中頃のゴールドトップに近いものでした。

ギブソン・カスタムショップでは、1968年当時の初期生産ロットで見られた、非常にレアでコレクタブルなクラウン・インレイを冠したモデルの再現に成功。既に生産完了となってしまったことが惜しいです。

ボディには2ピースのメイプル・トップ/1ピース・マホガニー・バック、ネックには1ピース・ソリッド・マホガニー、ローズウッド指板を使用。カッタウェイ部のメイプルトップが隠れる大きいバインディングが巻かれており、接着は膠(ハイドグルー)を使用。ロングテノン(Deep Joint)のセットネック。

ヘッド角はやや浅い14度で、ノブの角張ったKluson製 Double Line/Double Ring「Gibson Deluxe」を搭載。
ネックシェイプはやや小ぶりな「Authentic '68 Medium C-Shape」、フレットには「Medium-Jumbo」を採用。
ブリッジはワイヤードの「ABR-1」にサドルにはナイロンを使用し、コントロールノブはメタルトップ付きのゴールド・ハットノブを使用。フロント・トーンのメタルトップ欠品。

ピックアップは芯があり表現力豊かな「Custom Soapbar P90」を2基搭載し、ビンテージカーブを採用したCTS製ポット、Luxe製 Black Beauty Capacitorsなど、エレクトロ部までもビンテージを徹底再現しております。

使用に伴う傷などございますが比較的綺麗な状態で、フレットも殆ど減っておらず、トラスロッドも問題なく締め・緩め共に90度回ることを確認しております。
68レスポール・スタンダードは生産完了となっておりますので、お探しの方はこの機会にぜひ！
