Here at Palen Music Center, we are thrilled to offer this Gibson Custom Shop masterpiece, which captures the exact moment Gibson transitioned into the legendary humbucking era. This reissue features a solid, lightweight mahogany body topped with a two-piece maple cap, joined together by period-correct hot hide glue. The result is a resonance and sustain that feels alive in your hands, echoing the same \"working man’s\" elegance that made this model a staple for legends like Duane Allman and Freddie King.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder the hood, you’ll find a pair of unpotted Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups, meticulously designed to replicate the bite, warmth, and dynamic response of original 1957 PAFs. Whether you're chasing the \"woman tone\" or a snarling blues lead, these pickups deliver with haunting accuracy. The \"Chunky C\" neck profile offers a substantial, palm-filling grip that feels broken-in and comfortable, especially combined with the Vintage Original Sheen (VOS) finish that gives the hardware and nitrocellulose lacquer a gentle, authentic patina.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy Buy A Guitar From Palen Music Center?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003ePalen Music Center has a wide range of unique guitars to enhance the sound of your music!
