The Story

'57 Les Paul Custom Reissue Ebony 2003

This is a great playing 2003 Gibson Custom Shop '57 Les Paul Custom Reissue, in a 2-pickup incarnation! The guitar has a chunky profile to the mahogany neck, and comes in at a light (for a Les Paul Custom) 9 lbs, 5 oz. It's been refretted with bigger frets, and has two modern sounding DiMarzio humbuckers with a locking tune-o-matic bridge. The guitar has some light play marks around the body, with buckle rash around the back, no major dents or dings. It includes an older Gibson hardshell case, where the bottom and locking latch are broken, however the side latches still close and protect the guitar as it should! It doesn't include a certificate of authenticity.  A vibey Custom that you won't be afraid to rock on stage with.

Includes: Gibson Hardshell Case
