The 1997 Gibson Les Paul Classic 1960 Reissue is a notable model in Gibson's lineup, blending vintage aesthetics with modern playability. Introduced in 1990, the Les Paul Classic aimed to capture the essence of a 1960 Les Paul Standard, featuring a slim '60s neck profile, narrow headstock, and vintage-style appointments. However, it's important to note that while it emulates the 1960 model, it's not a true Historic Reissue, which is a more accurate reproduction produced by Gibson's Custom Shop. This particular example is in very good condition with minimal signs of use, plays and sounds exceptional with 10-46 strings setup to perfection, comes in original hard case.
