Description
What makes this guitar special: A nice looking studio model with flashy chrome hardware against a dazzling ebony finish. This piece plays beautifully up and down the fretboard, making chording and lead lines a snap in any position. The 2013 model also comes with push-pull coil taps on the 490R and 498T humbuckers, for tons of tonal variance! It has been expertly setup by our in-house luthier, so it plays and sounds terrific.
Cosmetic condition: Very good overall condition-as with all black guitars, there are various surface and playwear scratches throughout the instrument visible under particular lighting. There is some visible pickwear above the strings as well as on the pickguard, and some very minimal fretwear.
Body: Solid mahogany body with maple cap in ebony finish with black pickguard, chrome tune-o-matic bridge, and chrome stopbar tailpiece.
Weight: 8lb, 7.7oz
Neck: Solid mahogany neck with white side dots and mother-of-pearl trapezoidal inlays. 1 11/16” nut width, 24 3/4" scale length. Rosewood fingerboard is in fantastic shape with no pitting, and frets are in excellent shape, with nearly a full lifetime of use left in them. Headstock features gold Gibson and Les Paul logos, along with Kluson Deluxe tuners, in perfect working condition. Neck is straight and truss rod functions as it should.
Electronics: 490R and 498T humbuckers with 3-way pickup selector switch and black speed knobs, 2x tone, 2x volume (with individual push-pull coil taps).
Case: Original hard shell case included.
