Description
What makes this guitar special: As far as Les Pauls go, there’s a reason Customs are so beloved, and this guitar is no different. Outside of having a vibrant aesthetic of Heritage Cherry Sunburst and gold, this LP comes loaded with a PAF-style 490R humbucker in the neck and slightly hotter 498T in the bridge, a combination of which not only gives players long-revered Gibson tone, but a bit of bite and separation as well. Its appointments – like multi-ply binding and gold hardware -- are synonymous with Gibson Custom class and aptly pay tribute to this historic model. If that wasn’t enough, this guitar is still super clean for a used guitar, includes its original hardshell case and case candy, and will arrive to its new owner will a full professional setup, thanks to our top-notch in-house luthiers.
Cosmetic Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition overall, if not near mint.
