Description
What makes this guitar special: This is a super clean Les Paul Traditional that’s in such good shape it even still has the original “Plek’d” sticker on the bridge pickup. The rest is in similarly great shape and shows only a few minor marks here and there to show that it’s even been played. The frets are barely touched and still have the full extent of their playing time left in them. The ’57 Classic and Classic Plus humbuckers sound fantastic in both positions, and provide equal parts of warm, chunky body and classic jangle. Plus, it comes with a nice full in-hand 50s profile neck which is perfect for players who aren’t partial to the slimmer modern profiles.
Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition overall. It does have a few minor dings, light scratches, and a few finish inconsistencies here and there, but is otherwise in fantastic condition overall. It looks like it’s barely been played, and even still has the original “Plek’d” sticker on the bridge pickup. The frets show almost no wear whatsoever and still have a full lifetime of playing left in them. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions as it should.
Body: Single cutaway mahogany body with a flame maple top in Wine Red. Single-ply cream binding. Single-ply raised cream pickguard. Gold speed knobs.
Neck: 50s style profile mahogany neck and cream-bound rosewood fingerboard with figured acrylic trapezoid inlays. Vintage-style Kluson Deluxe tuning machines with opaque keystone keys. “Traditional” truss rod cover. 1 11/16” nut width. 24.75” scale length.
Electronics: ’57 Classic humbucker in the neck and ’57 Classic Plus humbucker in the bridge. 2 x tone, 2 x volume controls. 3-way pickup selector.
Weight: 9 lbs 5.6 oz
Playability/Sound: The 50s profile has a bit more heft to it which will be perfect for players looking for a more full in-hand feel. The 57 Classic and Classic Plus both sound fantastic, with a warm and chunky response in the neck with mid-range body and top end jangle.
Case: Includes original hardshell case.
