Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Wide Tomato Burst 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue combines a lightweight mahogany body, figured two-piece maple top, and Slim Taper mahogany neck. Its rosewood fingerboard has extra-rolled binding, while dual unpotted Alnico III CustomBuckers run through a hand-wired control harness with individual volume and tone controls. Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aging keeps the visual wear restrained: slight lacquer checking, minimal playing wear, and aged hardware patina. A Tune-o-matic bridge, stopbar tailpiece, and Kluson tuners complete the listed hardware package.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players after a 1960 Les Paul reissue with restrained, lightly aged visual wear.
- Guitarists who use separate volume and tone controls to work between two humbuckers.
- Collectors wanting a Murphy Lab model with slight lacquer checking rather than extensive wear.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players wanting conspicuous buckle rash and broad playing wear; this finish has very little playing wear.
