2013 Gibson Joe Walsh 1960 Reissue Les Paul VOS Tangerine Burst

Gibson Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul Reissue

VOS Finish

Slim 1960 Neck Profile

We purchased this guitar from one of our regular customers who is an avid Gibson Custom collector. This guitar was taken care of, stored properly and played very little!

This Les Paul is in excellent condition. There is a smudge on the binding by the pickguard bracket, and some minor worming on the back of the neck.

From Gibson;

Joe Walsh is a rare and distinguished member of the rock and roll élite who has managed to retain his distinctive and instantly recognizable tone and playing style through the course of a career spanning five decades. From joining the James Gang in 1968, to his long and ongoing solo career, to his pivotal role as lead guitarist with the Eagles, that thick, rich, sustaining Les Paul tone has remained the centerpiece of Joe's sound. Now the look, feel, and tone of his own exalted original 1960 Les Paul Standard has been recreated in exacting detail by the world-renowned craftspeople of Gibson Custom as the Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul Standard.

Working closely with Joe Walsh, the guitar's current owner, and the guitar itself, Gibson Custom has analyzed this rare original 'Burst in exacting detail, reproducing it with unprecedented precision in a Limited Run totaling 250 guitars: 50 hand-aged by Tom Murphy and signed by the artist, a further 75 Murphy aged, and 125 treated to Gibson's proprietary VOS processes. The result is a dead-on 1960 Standard that not only offers every drop of that legendary Joe Walsh tone, but which also presents the magical look and feel of this beloved artist's guitar.

From the carefully hand-selected maple top, to the accurate "tangerine burst" finish, to a neck profile measured precisely from the original guitar, to the Custom Bucker PAF-style pickups and period-correct electronics, the Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul Standard is a stunning recreation of one of the most desirable electric guitars ever made. In addition, as a member of the 2013 class of Historic instruments, the Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul features Gibson Custom's 20th Anniversary Specifications: genuine aniline dye back and sides, historically accurate truss rod assembly with no tubing, hot hide glue neck joint, historically accurate binding color, and 1 piece Rosewood fingerboard. All together, it presents a rare opportunity to own the closest thing possible to this historic artist guitar.
