The Gibson Custom 1956 Les Paul Standard Reissue is a Custom Shop recreation of the original goldtop-era Les Paul, built with a mahogany body and top, a mahogany neck with a maple center strip, and a rosewood fretboard. It carries period-correct P-90 single-coil pickups, a Tune-o-matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece, and vintage-style hardware and plastics. It suits players who want classic rock, blues and jazz tones with single-coil bite rather than the humbucker punch of later Les Pauls. Against a Standard '59 or '60 reissue, it trades humbucker output for brighter, more articulate single-coil response and a chunkier vintage neck feel.

Owners of the 1956 Reissue praise its authentic vintage feel, resonant mahogany build and the bright, articulate voice of its P-90 pickups. Many say it nails classic blues and rock tones and feels like a genuine old guitar. The main complaints are the expected P-90 hum and the weight.
