I think when this guitar came out it was initially called the 58 or 1958 re issue. Gibson re issues these days are a little more lined up with reality but this can still be fun. I am not sure what this is a re issue of other than of it self. The guitar has an original Les Paul Custom fingerboard and also the truss rod cover mentions custom. Was this a special order? It is special for sure. I have never seen one like this. The guitar is extra clean and original in super condition.
