From country to blues to rock, its thick yet biting tone and easy playability has ruled them all.
The two pickup Les Paul Special was introduced in 1955 as an intermediate model, positioned between the low cost Les Paul Junior and the Les Paul. Originally available only in a single cutaway, TV style limed mahogany finish, a double cutaway Special and cherry red finish option were introduced in 1959. The 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cutaway is now part of Gibson's Vintage Original Spec series.
Like all VOS (Vintage Original Spec) Series instruments, the 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cutaway VOS is handcrafted for comfort and playability in the Gibson Custom Shop. The construction, neck profile, hardware, and electronics are period accurate, and a special nitrocellulose finish treatment gives it the patina of a gently aged vintage guitar. Includes Gibson Custom Shop case, a certificate of authenticity, and custom care kit.
