2014 Gibson Custom Shop Southern Rock Tribute ’59 Les Paul Aged & Signed.

This one is a beauty!

Serial #12.

8.7lbs

This is a the very rare Aged and Signed version (as opposed to the more common VOS) and as you can see, it has been hand signed on the back of the guitar at the Gibson factory by:-

Gary Rossington (Lynyrd Skynyrd)

-Dickey Betts (Allman Brothers Band)

-Charlie Daniels

-Jimmy Hall (Wet Willer, Jeff Beck, Hank Williams Jr.)

-Ricky Medlocke (Blackfoot, Lynyrd Skynyrd)

-Burst collector  and expert Ronny Proler

Only 50 of these were made, world-wide.

As you know, some of these Southern Rock Icons have past away since this guitar was built, making the signatures in this group even more rare and valuable.

This guitar is a stunner. Absolutely MINT condition and comes with everything bit of case candy, COA, warranty card, etc. Even includes the protective sock for the guitar.

The signatures on this one are dark and very, very clear. You will not find a better one AND its serial #12!

If you are a serious Gibson collector, you need this in your life:)

Gibson Les Paul Custom Shop 1959 Southern Rock Tribute ’59 R9 Aged & Signed only 50 Reverseburst

As the first guitar maker to pay tribute to a genre of music, Gibson Custom is once again setting new standards in the industry, this time through the launch of its Southern Rock Tribute program and a corresponding guitar.  The program, which features the support of legends of the genre, including Dickey Betts, Charlie Daniels, Gary Rossington and Jimmy Hall, celebrates the cultural importance of Southern Rock through charitable giving and recognition of the artists that established Southern Rock as a genre of positive revolution and cultural significance beginning in the late 1960’s and 1970’s.  Vintage guitar experts, including Ronny Proler, are also consulting on the program, lending input into the icon piece of the program, The Southern Rock Tribute 1959 Les Paul.
Based on the brand’s flagship 1959 Les Paul Reissue, an homage to the original 1959 that was the chosen tool of many of Southern Rock’s most influential players, the new Southern Rock Tribute 1959 Les Paul features a special “Reverseburst” finish designed to be instantly recognized. .
