The Story

1976 Les Paul Custom Ebony

Who doesn't love a vintage Les Paul Custom that you can tell has some stage time under its belt? This is a 1976 Custom with an Ebony finish and authentically worn down gold hardware. The fretboard has been refretted at some point, with low profile frets that play quite fast. The pancake body has some delamination as shown, though the wood is not moving. The finish is worn down with scratches and dings throughout from heavy picking, and the finish worn down to the clear coat over the neck. It's stamped as a Factory 2nd on the headstock, though by now with all of that playwear, who's to say what the original blemish was? The guitar is super fun to play, and has a great vibe as soon as you pick it up. A non-original SKB case is included.

Includes: SKB Hardshell Case
