Description
What’s special about this guitar: Not only is this Les Paul Traditional a looker, but is in fantastic shape headstock to strap button. The beautifully figured A+ maple top is a perfect canvas for its Ocean Blue finish. The movement of this finish under light actually mimics glistening waves, which just makes it that much cooler. The new brass zero fret nut sounds great and maintains excellent sustain. The cream binding provides a nice complement to the rosewood board and an appropriate contrast in between the gorgeous light top and darkly-figured back. The pickups sound fantastic and the neck is comfortably wide and provides excellent playability nut to cut. This is a super clean 2015 Traditional you shouldn’t miss out on, so don’t wait.
Condition: This Les Paul Traditional is in excellent condition overall, if not better. It does possess a few light surface scratches and signs of very light play wear, but overall is incredibly clean.

Playability/Sound: The ’59 Tribute pickups in this guitar sound awesome and have a good amount of low end chunk and rich midrange. The wider neck and rounded XL profile give players a whole lot of real estate to post up on for excellent soloing stability.
