2003 Gibson Les Paul Standard Dark Back w/OHSC - Refin

Northwest Vintage Guitars presents a vibey 2003 Gibson Les Paul Standard with a cool Trans Red Refinish and a Dark Back in the original case.  This version of the LP features Burstbucker 1&2 Humbuckers and Gibson branded CTS pots.  No push pulls or splitting - just pure vintage tones.   24.75" scale, 12" radius, 8.76 lbs.  We installed a pair of Mallory Caps and it really gave it a great sweep.  The refinish was done before we acquired it so we don't know the history.  There are some finish flaws so look at the photos carefully if you don't like a cool mojo.  No playability issues on a past refret.  Comes safely packed and fully insured in the original hard case in the photos. 

The nut measures 1 11/16", neck depth is .83"-.97" at the 1st and 12th frets respectively.  It's a modern C profile.  Freshly strung and accurately intonated with Ernie Ball 10-46 nickel strings and factory spec 4/64"-3/64" action.  The neck is straight, the truss rod turns in both directions, and the relief is currently set for optimum playability.   The frets are level and clean with a little wear, but nothing egregious.  The fretboard is clean and conditioned.  There are a few scratches and dings as pictured.  It remains in excellent playable condition with no dead spots.
