2013 Gibson Custom Shop Joe Walsh Signature 1960 Les Paul VOS Tangerine Burst W/OHSC/COA.
Rare, Joe Walsh Signature 1960 Les Paul in VOS!
This is serial #119
Released in 2013 as part of a limited run of 250 guitars. Produced in three tiers with 125 given Gibson’s proprietary VOS treatment.
This is a beauty!
Excellent condition, this was a one-owner, collector owned guitar and was not played.
The flame top is one that shifts from angle to angle, and in various lighting, so I took pics from as many angles as I could.
It is all original and comes with COA and other original paperwork. Original Lifton style case is, of course, included as well.
This is a superb, investment quality Les Paul and you will not see many of these for sale.

Built to perform just like Joe’s Les Paul
Many guitarists consider the vintage Les Paul electric guitar the ideal combination of tone and playability. The Gibson Custom Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul VOS is based on Joe’s ’60 Tangerine Burst LP to bring you the vibe of that classic model. The 1-piece mahogany neck provides the sustain that made the Les Paul a legend and features a custom Joe Walsh profile for a period-correct feel. And with the time-proven combination of a mahogany body, maple top, and a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard, you know that the Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul VOS is built to perform.
Updated vintage appointments are more authentic than ever
Gibson’s latest Custom Shop Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul VOS includes new appointments to add even more authenticity and vintage vibe to this iconic re-issue guitar. The neck is attached using hide glue, which many argue sounds better than synthetic glue. Gibson Custom Shop also re-engineered the truss rod, truss rod washer, and anchor to their original form. They also eliminated the tubing that surrounded the truss rod. From the vintage-accurate Aniline dye finish on the mahogany back and sides to the spot-on binding color makes the Gibson Custom Shop Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul VOS is one of the most accurate artist reproductions ever.
CustomBucker pickups deliver vintage PAF tone
Gibson Custom paid just as much attention to the Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul VOS’s electronics as they did to its aesthetics. Beginning with vintage CTS potentiometers and bumble bee capacitors, every part of its internal signal path is designed to give you absolutely dead-on ’60 Les Paul tone. Of course, it’s next to impossible to find genuine ’50s PAFs (even for Gibson). Instead, the Custom Shop Joe Walsh 1960 Les Paul VOS sports a pair of Gibson’s CustomBucker humbuckers. The CustomBucker is the most historically accurate PAF copy ever. You just won’t find another Les Paul that comes as close to the original look, sound, and feel of a ’60 Les Paul!
