Well, well, well... look who came crawling back to G-Brat's Guitars!

We sold this beautiful Les Paul Custom several years ago, and apparently she missed us so much that she found her way right back into our inventory. We haven't decided whether to call it customer loyalty or a guitar with serious attachment issues!

This 2011 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom features a gorgeous Ebony gloss nitro finish, a striking maple fingerboard with mother-of-pearl block inlays, and nickel hardware. It's a particularly handsome combination that you don't encounter nearly as often as the traditional black Custom with a dark fingerboard and gold hardware.

And with a Gibson '57 Classic in the neck and a 498T in the bridge, she's got plenty of sweet talk AND a healthy supply of attitude!

Condition & What's Included

She was born in 2011 and has certainly enjoyed some adventures along the way!

She's in Very Good condition, displaying the normal cosmetic evidence of a guitar that's been played and enjoyed rather than spending her entire life locked away in a case.

There are light surface scratches, pick marks, and finish swirling on the top, particularly around the pickups and pickguard. The back also shows scattered light scratches, small surface impressions, and minor handling marks. There are additional small cosmetic marks along the body edges, as photographed.

There is also a small finish imperfection at the end of the fingerboard where it meets the neck pickup. 

The original pickups were replaced with a Gibson '57 Classic in the neck and a Gibson 498T in the bridge. Both are excellent pickups, delivering everything from warm, articulate cleans to thick, powerful rock tones. The original pickups are not included.

Otherwise, this guitar retains its original configuration and includes the  original Gibson Custom Shop Brown Lifton-Style Hardshell Case, the case candy and Certificate .

There's something especially cool about a black Les Paul Custom with a maple fingerboard. The contrast is absolutely striking, the nickel hardware completes the look, and that comfortable neck profile makes this one a pleasure to play.

At 9.2 pounds, she's got that substantial Les Paul Custom feel without requiring you to hire a chiropractor on retainer!

She's already found her way back to G-Brat's once. The next owner might want to hang on to her!

Whoever brings this baby home is going to be STOKED!!
