A handful of transitional guitars that blend the ever evolving specs are even more prized. As the chunky, rounded neck profile of the ’59 segued into the slimmer, faster profile of the ’60 Les Paul Standard, a mere handful of the fatter 50’s necked examples slipped into the new model year, and of these, the Les Paul owned by legendary music producer and songwriter John Shanks is known to be as good as it gets.

Here are the details: Unique Faded Cherry Sunburst, Lightly figured Maple top, One piece Mahogany body, Aniline Dye used on the body and neck, Rounded neck profile, Single layer Rosewood fingerboard with the “original style” trapezoid inlays, Custom Bucker bridge and neck pickups, ABR-1 bridge with lightweight Aluminum stopbar tailpiece, Grover tuners.
