The Story

1968 Les Paul Custom Authentic Ebony

Packed full of vibe and tone, this is a slick looking '68 Les Paul Custom Authentic built by the Gibson Custom Shop. The Custom Authentic series is a sort of precursor to the VOS finish which dulled down the gloss a bit. This guitar has nickel hardware, reflector knobs, and a set of Burstbucker humbuckers. There are some small dings around the body, and the side of the neck around the 7th fret treble side. Strap locks have been installed as well so it's ready to gig right out of the case. The guitar besides its players wear still looks great and is ready to Rock!

Includes: Hardshell Case
