Gibson Custom Shop Collectors Choice #1 Melvyn Franks 1959 Les Paul VOS
The 1959 Les Paul Standard, perhaps the most iconic electric guitar in the world. Among 1959 Les Pauls, the one that belonged to Fleetwood Mac blues genius Peter Green and later to Gary Moore stands tall even in such an elite class. The first Gibson Collectors Choice™ offering was from the collection of Melvyn Franks. Mr. Franks is a renown collector who was able to purchase an original 1959 Les Paul “Burst” a fine example that used to belong to Gary Moore and Peter Green at one time. Some of the greatest blues tones ever recorded came from that Les Paul.
As with every reproduction of an existing model, Gibson Custom painstakingly turned over every stone to properly recreate the guitar in as exacting detail as possible. This includes the “out of phase” middle position tone, the missing silver inserts on the top two “tophat” control knobs, the reversed neck pickups (with adjustable pole pieces facing the bridge) and the accurate neck shape.
