Product Details
________________________________

This is the definitive version of the “Burst” reprint model.

Existing Les Paul Sunburst from 1958 to 1960, commonly known as “Burst”. 1,712 pieces of “Burst” were produced between 1958 and 1960, but in 1958, the Gold Top was also released at the same time, so the number was even lower. It is said that there are 700 “Burst” pieces in existence, which is about half of the total produced, but they hardly ever go on the market, and due to the overwhelming rise in market prices, they are considered to be unaffordable for ordinary musicians. It has become. This model reproduces the Burst with the serial number #9 1953, which has been identified as the original among such “Bursts” and has been certified as the original. Collector’s Choice is a complete reproduction of the perfectly profiled #9 1953 “Burst”. The original #9 1953 “Burst” had several owners and changed names, and was called “The Claw,” “Hawaii Burst,” and “Carmelita.” As it was originally called “The Claw,” the maple grain on the top is clearly visible, giving it a distinct “claw mark.” You can experience the originality of the neck grip and arch feel, which can only be felt by profiling the original. This is a top-quality Les Paul reissue model that will motivate you to work hard every day, just by displaying it with the slogan “Someday it will be an original”.
