Description

The 2011 Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul R9 has been extensively upgraded by Historic Makeovers with their RDS package, giving the guitar a more vintage-authentic look and feel. It features a mahogany body with maple top, mahogany neck, Brazilian rosewood fingerboard, Grover tuners, a comfortable C-shaped profile, and an 8.8 lb weight.

A pair of ThroBak humbuckers handles the electronics, controlled by a 3-way toggle with individual volume and tone controls. The Historic Makeovers RDS work is the defining modification on this example, which remains in excellent condition and includes its original hardshell case.
