Collector's Choice #29 recreate's Tamio Okuda's 1959 Les Paul   07-May-15

Gibson tells us that Collector's Choice #29 Tamio Okuda 1959 Les Paul brings you a stunning re-creation of the prized guitar in a noted Japanese star's collection. They say that close analysis of the original instrument has enabled details such as the light figuring of the guitar's plain maple top, its distinctive dish carve, the neck profile, a historic truss-rod assembly with no tubing, and its gently faded Sunburst finish (available in hand-aged and VOS renditions) to all be accurately reproduced. They believe that, with Tamio's choice of 57 Classic humbuckers and Bumblebee tone caps, CC#29 is primed to sound as superb as it looks and feels.
