Own a piece of vintage 1970s Gibson history built specifically to be a reliable, stage-ready working guitar. This genuine "Norlin-era" Les Paul features a gorgeous, vibrant starburst/sunburst finish and was thoughtfully upgraded about 20 years ago (around 2006) to maximize its performance, tuning stability, and raw sonic power for the working musician.The Upgrades (Done ~20 Years Ago):

• Full-Sized Humbucker Route: Originally a Deluxe model, this guitar was professionally routed to house a massive-sounding pair of full-sized vintage-spec humbuckers. It completely eliminates the thinness of the original mini-humbuckers, delivering thick, singing Les Paul sustain and punch.
• Premium Locking Tuners: Upgraded to high-end locking tuners to guarantee rock-solid tuning stability under heavy stage use and lightning-fast string changes mid-set.

Key Specs & Vintage Attributes:

• Serial Number: 176497 (Stamping and "MADE IN USA" marker puts production between 1970–1975)
• Body & Finish: Classic 1970s "pancake" mahogany/maple body construction with a stunning, naturally aged sunburst/starburst finish.
• Neck: Rock-solid 3-piece neck design built to withstand the rigors of the road.
