Acquired in 1987 through Guns N’ Roses’ manager, Alan Niven, the guitar was built by Kris Derrig, who specialized in creating replica ‘59 Les Paul replica guitars, packing his guitars with Seymour Duncan® Patent Applied For-style pickups and Bumblebee caps in an attempt to recreate the sound of the now sought after Gibson 1959 Les Paul™ guitars. Watch as Slash recounts how this guitar became his “security blanket,” featured on almost every record he’s ever made, including the latest Conspirators album. He also shares why this Les Paul replica was retired from live shows after just one year, replaced by his Gibson Les Paul signature models to preserve its history.
