Vintage Gibson Les Paul Custom in Cherry Sunburst finish made in 1975 with Original Hard Shell Case. This guitar features a double bound solid 3-piece sandwiched mahogany/maple/mahogany body with a maple top, 3-piece mahogany neck and bound ebony fingerboard with a bound headstock. Equipped with its original set of Gibson Patent Stamp humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions. Controlled by 2 volume pots & 2 tone pots and a 3-way toggle switch comprised of its original CTS pots dating to the 39th week of 1975. The 24.75" scale length neck has mother of pearl block inlays and black side markers refretted with 22 medium jumbo frets on a 12" radius with a slim taper profile.

This guitar is in overall very good condition. At some point in its life it received a refret and a new nut. There is a ding on the nut on the bass end. There are light surface marks and small dings throughout. The plating on the hardware is worn on the tuners and parts of the bridge. There are some circular marks on the back of the body along with some belt rash and a few light dings. (See Pics)
