Collector’s Choice™ #18 1960 Les Paul Dutchburst by Gibson Custom
Dutchburst

In recent years, Gibson Custom has introduced the ultra exclusive Collector`s Choice edition of electric guitars. This line deals with guitars frequently requested by the Gibson Custom enthusiasts and collectors of rare and exclusive guitars. Tonewoods, hardware, measures and, quite often, the production technologies match the originals (mostly, the models from 1950s and 1960s are being replicated in this series). Thus far, there have been seventeen models, mainly Les Pauls, and for the summer of 2014 Collector`s Choice #18 1960 Les Paul Dutchburst is being introduced. Based on the 1960 Les Paul, the one that succeeded the mythic 1959 LP, Dutchburst offers the best possible interpretation of the 1960 original there will ever be. Solid and single-cut mahogany body comes with the same exact shape and measurements as the original. Also, it features a two-piece maple cap on top. Vintage reissue single-ply binding around the top is present. Aged Dutchburst color pattern is aged and paired with nickel-plated hardware. There is no VOS (Vintage Original Specs) Dutchburst option available. Two-piece bridge unit is fronted by a pair of Custombucker pickups (these recent creations made exclusively for Gibson Custom are deeply rooted in the original PAF legacy). Two volume knobs, two tone knobs and a three-way toggle pickup switch comprise the traditional LP controls unit. Mahogany neck with maple spline rocks the 1960 contour and is attached to the body via the mortise & tenon joint.Like the body, back of the neck is also aged to reflect the wear and tear of more than fifty years of active playing. On it`s top, there`s a one-piece Indian rosewood fingerboard with 22 standard-sized frets, trapezoid inlays, creme binding, 12" radius and 1-11/16" wide nylon string nut. The MSRP for this model is set at $7,998.
