Well, this is it…. the one we’ve been waiting for!

Gibson has painstakingly replicated the original 1960 Les Paul with amazing accuracy. No aging or wear treatment has been applied; these babies look as shiny and new as the originals would have looked when they were first put on display.

The instrument has been given Fender’s “Relic” treatment to show years of natural wear and tear—nicks, scratches, worn finish, rusty hardware and aged plastic parts.

The first time I ever encountered a Jazzmaster in person, it was in the hands of a great guitarist by the name of Stan Gadziola, who was one of two guitarists slinging their axes in the service of an amazing R&B band called Sounder.
