Gibson R8 Les Paul Standard Cherry Burst 2007

Gibson R8 Les Paul Standard Cherry Burst 2007

The Gibson R8 Les Paul Standard is a faithful re-creation of the early, legendary Burst models that featured the then-newly invented humbucking pickups. Introduced in late 1957, these new ‘Standard’ models also replaced the original metallic gold top finish with a sunburst. The Les Paul Custom also carried the new hardware, but kept its black finish and gold hardware.

Collings 290 Solidbody Pelham Blue, 2018

Built during 2018 in Austin Texas, this Pelham Blue Collings 290 has some differences from current production.
