1958 is a landmark year in guitar history, particularly because it marked the introduction of the Gibson Les Paul Standard. This model featured a solid mahogany body with a carved maple top and two humbucking pickups, creating a warmer, thicker tone that helped define the sound of rock, blues, and jazz for decades. The 1958 Les Paul is highly prized by collectors and players alike for its build quality and iconic status. Overall, 1958 represents a golden era of guitar innovation that still influences modern instruments today.
Custom refers to instruments or gear that are specially made or modified to meet a player’s specific preferences and requirements. Custom guitars, amps, or pedals often feature unique designs, upgraded components, or personalised aesthetics that set them apart from standard production models. This category is ideal for musicians looking for one-of-a-kind equipment tailored to their playing style, sound, and look, offering greater attention to detail, craftsmanship, and exclusivity.
Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibrations into an electrical signal, which is then amplified. Unlike acoustic guitars, they rely on amplification for volume and tone shaping, making them highly versatile in genres like rock, blues, jazz, and metal. Electric guitars come in many body styles—solid, semi-hollow, and hollow—and feature different pickup configurations, neck types, and hardware. From smooth clean tones to aggressive distortion, they offer a wide sonic range, making them the backbone of modern guitar music.
