Gibson Custom Shop Mick Jones Signature Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar
British guitarist Mick Jones, who formed the rock band Foreigner, first broke into the music biz as a "hired gun" of sorts, appearing on recordings by George Harrison, Peter Frampton, Spooky Tooth, and the Leslie West Band. Foreigner's self titled album in 1977 became an immediate hit going platinum five times over. The Gibson Custom Shop Mick Jones Les Paul Custom is a recreation of his original Les Paul Custom joining the line up of their "inspired by" series.

The Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard Vintage Original Spec model is the next step in Gibson"s journey toward perfection. The only major change to the Les Paul Standard in 1959 was the addition of the wider, fatter jumbo frets, which facilitated more dramatic bends. The real force of this change was not felt until the late 1960s, when rock and blues players like Eric Clapton, Mike Bloomfield, and Peter Green began to discover the fat, warm voice of the 59 Standard. This moment in history marked the beginning of the idealization of the 59 Les Pauls as the Holy Grail of guitars in the midst of professionals, collectors, and weekend warriors. All VOS model Gibsons are given an aged appearance by enduring unique staining, wet-sanding, and hand-rubbing processes.
