1956 Gibson Les Paul Standard, Serial Number 612826
By 1956, the Les Paul™ had become a flagship instrument, evolving from its 1952 origins while retaining its Goldtop finish, solid mahogany body, maple cap, and duo of powerful P-90 pickups. 1956 was the only full year in which the Les Paul model featured the P-90s and the adjustable ABR-1 bridge setup, a combination that allowed the Les Paul model to intonate, sustain, and thrill like never before.
This 1956 Gibson Les Paul Standard remains a stunning example of a mid-50s Les Paul, featuring minimal checking, light nicks and dings, and a dark, chocolatey Brazilian rosewood fingerboard. The original narrow/tall frets are in very good condition. Vintage-correct repairs and replacements have been performed for structural integrity while maintaining authenticity. The original ABR-1 bridge is sunken and is included in the case, with a Custom Shop Historic ABR-1 installed for improved playability. The bridge was leaning slightly, so Glaser Instruments doweled, redrilled, and installed slightly longer bridge posts to ensure no future lean. The original jack plate was broken and has been replaced with a Custom Shop Historic reissue. The G tuner is bent, and the original switch nut, which was bent, has been replaced with a vintage NOS replacement. The hole for the pickup switch is slightly enlarged from wood chipping away, but this is stable and is covered by the switch washer.
Ships in its original Lifton™ brown and pink Cali Girl case and includes a Certificate of Authenticity, Letter of Appraisal, and new Limited Lifetime Warranty.
