Here's a beautiful 2003 Model Les Paul Standard electric guitar with the highly sought after Ice Tea Vintage Sunburst high gloss finish and a spectacular AAAA type two piece book matched maple flametop.

This may be a Special Ordered Limited Edition Model with a hand picked top.  
I'll update the ad ASAP with more details and pictures.

The guitar has been in a private collection for several years and well cared for.
It's in very good to excellent condition with only a few tiny nicks and scratches.
There are no big dents or dings and nothing that's thru the finish.  

The late 90's and the early 2000's were the "good wood" years for Gibson when they had a lot of flame top maple to pick from, and this guitar is no exception. . 

At first glance, it looks a lot like like a 1959 Les Paul Standard R8 R9 or R0 Custom Shop ReIssue or a M2M ( Made 2 / To Measure ) Model.
Regardless, I have no idea how the Custom Shop missed it, and didn't grab the top for this one.
In fact, we've seen several '59 Les Pauls that didn't have a flame top like this. You'll have to pay $5000 to $10,000 or more for a new Custom Shop Les Paul Jimmy Page 1 or 2 Tom Murphy Aged Killer Monster Yamano Les Paul Standard with a flametop like this.  

As you can see, the flametop is exceptional and it looks incredible, especially from different angles.   Also notice, the flame goes all the way to the edges and does not fade out.   ( The Dark Burst and Cherry Red Sunburst tops have very little, or no flame on the edges, which is why they're painted that way ).
The neck and the headstock, as well as the front and back of the guitar are all in very good to excellent condition.  You just won't find a nicer Les Paul, especially one, that's fifteen years old.  They just don't make em like this anymore.

The factory original Gibson hard shell case is included as well as the case candy, which includes the warranty card, owners manual, strap and truss rod tool. The case is also in excellent condition.
There's a combination lock on the side of the case, so you can secure your guitar, while it's being stored or transported.

The MSRP on a brand new 2018 Les Paul Standard is $5499.00 and my price is just $3999.99 so you can save a ton of money if you buy this one.
 
All of my guitars are also for sale locally, and you're welcome to make a " reasonable " offer.  

If the ad is still running then the guitar is still available and the ad will be deleted as soon as the guitar has been sold.

I pack very well and I ship very fast.

I can also ship any of my guitars, including this one, worldwide, and to every country in the world.

All international shipments are sent via Air Mail with Tracking Numbers

I can take any payment method that Reverb offers.

However, because of the high fees on credit card and PayPal payments I prefer a direct bank wire transfer, from your bank to mine.   My bank will take the transfer from any bank in the world and your banker can help you with this.  

But once again, I can take any payment option that Reverb offers.

Thanks
