This 2020 '59 Reissue ticks all the boxes. The flame top on this one is outrageously good—deep, wide, and alive with movement. Combined with the Washed Cherry finish, it’s classic burst vibes all day long.Sonically, the Custombuckers deliver that unmistakable vintage LP tone—rich, round lows, vocal mids, and sweet top-end chime. And it plays as well as it looks thanks to the comfortable '59 neck profile and flawless fretwork.
A proper tone machine with collector appeal and serious stage presence.
