Signature electric guitar combines features from Les Paul Axcess and '59 Reissue models
No more compromise
Dave Amato has played Gibson Les Pauls on stage for the last four decades, both as a member of REO Speedwagon and on tour with other huge names in rock and pop music. But lately, he has struggled to choose between his two favorites — a '59 Reissue and a Les Paul Axcess. So, Dave began to collaborate with the renowned guitar experts at Gibson Custom Shop to develop Dave's "perfect" Les Paul. The result is a beautiful and versatile Les Paul Axcess model unlike anything else available.Dave requested a figured top with a "Boston Sunset Fade" finish (inspired by his home town), a unique white ebony fingerboard, an extra-chunky neck profile, a Floyd Rose tremolo and two '57 Classic Plus humbucker pickups. He also insisted on the latest Axcess construction elements including a swept neck heel, revised back contours and an Apex headstock carve which naturally strengthens the neck. This is now Dave's main guitar on tour and in the studio, representing only the best of his favorite specs. Never again will he have to compromise.
