- ´59 LP Standard style appointments, highly figured (flame or quilted) maple tops, ebonized holly veneered pegheads, original inked serialization, other ´59 Standard features, approx. 1,500 mfg. circa 1978-79.
These instruments are considered desirable because Gibson (unofficially) duplicated an original 1959 Les Paul Standard almost exactly for a few companies, including Leo's in California (approx. 800 mfg., 400 were exported to Japan), The Guitar Trader in New Jersey (approx. 47 mfg.), and Jimmy Wallace (approx. several hundred) through Arnold and Morgan Music in Texas. These companies custom ordered Les Paul models that were patterned exactly after an original Gibson 1959 Standard Model and feature individualized truss rod covers. Currently, pricing on the Guitar Trader model can range from $4,000 to $10,000, the larger amount if with original PAF humbuckers installed by Guitar Trader. Guitars built for Leo's are selling between $3,500 and $4,500, and Jimmy Wallace models are selling between $3,500 and $4,500 range, assuming excellent original condition.
