The Story

1957 Les Paul VOS Ebony As-Is

This is a used 2011 Gibson Custom Shop '57 Les Paul with a very cool Ebony top finish combined with a natural finish to the mahogany body and neck. This guitar is being sold in as-is condition. There's a crack in the headstock that hasn't been glued or structurally repaired. The reason for that is that the crack is incredibly narrow and in order for it to be given attention it would unfortunately have to widen. It's still attached and the guitar plays, and will be packed as safely as possible but it's definitely something that will need tended to in the future.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case and Certificate of Authenticity
