The Story

1956 Les Paul Made 2 Measure Black over Gold Headstock Repair

This is a repaired Gibson Custom Shop Made 2 Measure '56 Les Paul spec'd out with a black over gold aged finish. The most notable features besides the finish on this guitar are the nickel covered P-90 in the neck with a bright and brash Firebird pickup in the bridge, as well as Bigsby tailpiece for all of your vibrato needs. The guitar had a professional headstock repair which is visible from the front as well as back. The work is holding strong and the guitar is back to playing as it should!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity
