Clean, all-original 1988 Gibson Les Paul Custom Lite in the rare Metallic Sunset finish. In person, the color leans more toward a deep metallic raspberry/pink depending on the lighting, with excellent depth and metallic character that’s difficult to fully capture in photos.

This guitar plays and sounds excellent with no functional issues. No breaks or repairs. The truss rod operates properly, the frets are in very good condition, and it was recently set up with .009s and low action for an effortless feel.

The guitar remains all original and has been well cared for over the years. There are a few small dings and signs of honest age-related wear consistent with a vintage instrument, i tried to capture in the photos. The gold hardware shows natural patina/wear typical of late ‘80s Gibsons.

Includes the original Gibson chainsaw case. The case is missing the Gibson logo badge but is otherwise in very good condition and fully functional.

Photos were taken in natural light to best capture the finish and its metallic color shift. Additional photos available upon request.

Only selling because another bucket-list guitar became available and I need to free up funds.

Priced based on recent Reverb sales for clean, original examples. Notice the dings in the top, 1 small ding by the input jack, 1 small ding on the back of the neck and the typical split marks in the binding. Open to reasonable offers.

I have also had some questions about the weight: comes in at 8.7 lbs on a luggage scale.

Clean, original examples in this finish do not come up often. Feel free to message me with any questions.
