Keeping the Flame Alive!
Les Paul Flametop Reissues

by Walter Carter
With original sunburst Les Paul Standards going anywhere from $25,000 to $60,000 or higher, it's not surprising to see a healthy demand for Gibson's dead–on accurate '59 Les Paul Flametop Reissue. But there's more than just a healthy demand for new Reissues. Reissues have a 20-year history of their own now, and there's a growing aura of mystery and mystique around the model-the kind of buzz that may indicate a "sleeper" is about to awaken in the vintage and collectible market.
