About this listing
WOW!!!!!!Up for sale is an ultra collectable limited edition 2009 Gibson Custom Shop ‘Inspired By’ 1954 Jeff Beck VOS Les Paul. Only 100 guitars with Gibson Custom’s pioneering VOS finish were made and come with a HAND SIGNED COA.This guitar is from one of Australia's largest private collections and is completely UNTOUCHED AND UNPLAYED. It has never been played or even been out of its case. It was bought and went straight into the collection vault. It is in mint collector grade condition.GIVEN THE RARITY AND PRICE OF THIS GUITAR, CASH/DIRECT PAYMENT AND LOCAL PICK-UP IS PREFERRED. While recording in Memphis, Beck paid a visit to a popular music store called Strings and Things to check out the stock. The guitar that caught his attention was a ’54 Gibson Les Paul. The 1954 Jeff Beck Les Paul Oxblood is the most detail-precise reissue of this hallowed instrument ever produced by Gibson Custom. All of the intensively accurate Custom Shop craftsmanship is there. From the one-piece light mahogany back to the accurately-arched carved maple top to the light aluminum wrapover bridge to the one-piece Beck-profile mahogany neck with long-tenon neck joint. Even the pickups, Gibson’s Burstbucker 2 and Burstbucker 3 (neck and bridge respectively) are among the most accurate vintage PAF reproductions that Gibson has ever conceived, right down to the irregular windings from coil to coil and their lack of potting, two ingredients that contribute to an authentic late-’50s and early ’60s humbucker tone.Specs as follows:Body Style: Les PaulBody: MahoganyTop: Carved MapleFinish: Oxblod VOSOther: Personally hand-signed COANeck: 1-piece set mahoganyNeck profile: '50s roundedNeck joint Location: 19th fretFingerboard: RosewoodScale length: 24-3/4"No. of frets: 22Nut width: 1-11/16"Neck inlays: Aged acrylic trapezoidHardware: Aged nickel bridge/tailpiece: one-piece aluminum wraparound stopbarKnobs: GoldTuners: SchallerNeck Pickup: BurstBucker 2Bridge Pickup: BurstBucker 3Controls: Two volume, two tone, 3-way toggle pickup selectorCase: Custom Shop hardshellIncludes: Certificate of authenticityWorldwide shipping is available.
