One of the most collectable modern guitars on the planet, Pearly Gates! This is the Aged & Signed version, serial #11. Such a legendary Burst from Mr. Cool, Billy Gibbons.

The Gibson Custom Shop and Billy Gibbons himself took painstaking steps to make sure this replica of Billy’s sacred guitar is true to form in every way. Highlight features include a hand selected figured maple top with carefully matched Heritage Cherry Sunburst finish with naturally darkened edges, a distinct red mahogany back (just like the original), Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates humbucker pickups built to replicate the original legendary tone, a one-piece mahogany neck, CTS potentiometers, bumblebee capacitors, and every scratch and ding true to the original and aged by the master Tom Murphy.

This model was released in 2009, the 50th anniversary of the ’59 Les Paul Standard.
