1971 Gibson USA Les Paul Custom
Available now is this super cool original 1971 Gibson Les Paul Custom, finished in Cherry Sunburst. This guitar was made in the Kalamazoo factory in early 1971 and is in overall good condition for its age, it’s lived a life over the last 55 years but has no breaks or repairs. It was imported from the states by the original owner in the early ‘80s and it was used touring before being bought by the second owner in the ‘90s who has owned it since but has not played it very much at all.
Spec wise, you get the "pancake" mahogany/maple body with a carved maple cap, paired with a Three-piece mahogany neck with a slim to medium C profile and a bound ebony fretboard with 22 frets. Electrics wise, you get Two Patent Number "T-Top" Humbuckers with gold covers which sound great with their bright, articulate, and balanced tone, perfect for that ‘70s Led Zeppelin or ZZ top sounds. Controls are 2 Volume, 2 Tone and 3-way toggle switch as standard, and all pots date to 1971. Serial number is 173714, confirmed and authenticated by gibson and matched to all 4 pot codes. Not sure where the marks at top of headstock came from, looks almost like very old burn marks from a previous life in the states?
It has had the tuners swapped at some point in its life but apart from that, it’s an all original rock and roll monster, ready to rock right into your house! This guitar has been set up with ernie ball 10 gauge strings and plays well with low action and no buzz. Comes with the original hard case as shown in photos. Weight is 9.28lbs
Seize this amazing opportunity to pick up a killer looking and sounding guitar at a fraction of the price! Any questions please ask!
