At the beginning of March, 2022, Triumph Motorcycles and legendary guitar maker Gibson announced a special, one-of-a-kind custom collaboration. Created in honor of the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, this mysterious pairing would center around 1959, which was a pivotal year in the history of both companies. For riders, 1959 saw the birth of the Triumph Bonneville T120. For rockers, of course, it was the first time that the Gibson 1959 Les Paul Standard was unleashed upon a world that would never be the same.
On March 22, 2022, these two one-of-a-kind icons finally dropped the covers on the fruits of this collaboration. Behold the Gibson 1959 Legends custom edition Les Paul Standard Reissue and Triumph Bonneville T120, both instantly drawing your eye with that instantly recognizable sunburst finish. This pair of specially-crafted items won’t be available for purchase. Instead, they’ll be offered as the award for the highest fundraiser at the 2022 Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, currently scheduled to take place on Sunday, May 22, 2022.
