Gibson is the undisputed king of the guitar world, having produced countless legendary instruments.
It is beloved by countless top artists, including Jimmy Page, Slash, and Zakk Wylde.
The Les Paul model, released by Gibson in 1952, was the company’s first solid-body guitar and debuted as a signature model for the American guitarist Les Paul.
The Les Paul’s signature fat tone and long sustain have been cherished by countless artists, enriching the music scene across various genres from its debut to the present day.
It is truly the quintessential electric guitar.
This model is the Les Paul Custom, a high-end variant within the Les Paul lineup.
It features the traditional combination of a mahogany body and neck, a maple top, and an ebony fingerboard.
The solid black finish, inlays on the fingerboard and headstock, and binding throughout the body create a luxurious atmosphere not found on other models.
As this instrument was manufactured 40 years ago, it exhibits weather checking from aging, and combined with the patina from years of playing, it has a dignified appearance.
Both the neck and bridge pickups have been replaced with high-end Lollar Imperial models.
Inspired by the legendary PAF pickup, these pickups retain a traditional sound character while featuring a modern twist.
In addition to a sweet, fat, and presence-filled tone, the fast attack characteristic of the hard ebony fingerboard is also a major attraction.
The Black Beauty is a guitar that many guitarists have likely dreamed of owning at least once.
Why not seize this opportunity?
Approximately 70% of the frets remain.
The truss rod and neck are in good condition.
The body and finish show age-appropriate dents, scratches, and weather checking overall. There are sticker marks and buckle marks on the back of the body. The binding shows signs of discoloration.
The electronics are in good condition.
The pickups, pots, bridge, and tailpiece have been replaced.
