1984 Gibson Les Paul Custom in the classic Wine Red finish.

This is a fantastic example of a Norlin-era Les Paul Custom that's been tastefully upgraded where it counts, making it an incredible player's guitar while still retaining much of its originality. If you're looking for a vintage Les Paul that can be taken straight to a gig or into the studio without paying collector-grade prices, this is well worth a look.

Specifications:
- Genuine 1984 Gibson Les Paul Custom
- Original Wine Red finish
- Original wiring harness
- Original nut
- Original frets with approximately 40% life remaining
- Seymour Duncan SH-1 '59 and SH-2 Jazz humbuckers
- TonePros bridge and tailpiece (original studs and screws retained)
- Schaller tuners
- Period-correct replacement truss rod cover
- Period-correct replacement strap buttons
- Pickguard removed
- Includes a period-correct Gibson Chainsaw hard case (non-original).

Condition:
- great condition overall, barely any scratches or marks (20 years under someone's bed).

- minor dint in the neck half way up (see pics).

- slight checking in the nitro in some parts of the body and headstock.

- fret life is on the lower side and it'll need a refret eventually.

The case is fully usable but shows its age, with two latches no longer functioning.

Weight: 4.9kg

The guitar is in very good condition for its age, with only the sort of small dings and honest wear you'd expect from a well-cared-for 40+ year-old instrument. Nothing excessive—just genuine vintage character.

The Seymour Duncan SH-1 '59 and SH-2 Jazz pickups are a fantastic combination, delivering warm, articulate cleans, excellent note definition and plenty of classic Les Paul sustain.

It's an extremely versatile guitar that covers everything from blues and classic rock through to modern rock with ease. This isn't a collector's case queen—it's a proper vintage Les Paul Custom in great condition for its age that's ready to be played and enjoyed.
