The 2013 Gibson Collector's Choice #9 "Believer Burst" recreates one specific 1959 Les Paul with an emphasis on preserving the details that made the original unique. It pairs a lightly figured maple top with a lightweight mahogany body, while Gibson's Custombucker pickups and vintage-style wiring deliver the open, responsive character expected from the Collector's Choice series. The VOS finish gives the guitar the appearance of an instrument that has been carefully preserved without relying on heavy aging, allowing the top and subtle figuring to remain the focus. Built in limited numbers, the Believer Burst stands as one of the more distinctive entries in the Collector's Choice line, offering a faithful interpretation of an individual vintage Les Paul instead of a generalized late-'50s reissue. Includes OHSC and COA.
