Gibson Les Paul Special Double Cutaway Owned by Nancy Wilson of Heart

This Les Paul Special Double Cutaway is Owned by Nancy Wilson of Heart

Serial: 9 9277 There are chips, scratches, and checking throughout the finish. The pickguard was removed at some point and the outline can be clearly seen in the finish. The pickguard is no longer with the guitar at all. The back cavity cover plate has been removed leaving the electronics exposed. The hardware is fairly tarnished. The input jack is a bit scratchy and will likely have to be cleaned and or resoldered. Overall, the guitar could benefit from a general setup and cleaning as the frets are a bit grimey and the pots are scratchy. There are dings and chips on the headstock, some of which have been touched up with black paint. The tuners have been replaced and you can see the outline of where the old ones existed as well as the original screw holes. A brass nut has been installed. There appears to have been a neck break, as you can see the refinish job at the heel of the neck. The neck break must have been pretty extensive because in between the fretboard and neck pickup there is a strip of plastic nailed to the body almost as if to conceal something. Below the neck pickup there has also been a chunk of wood set in the body. All of this is likely related to the repair. After all of this is said and done, the guitar still functions great and the electronics sound fantastic! After all, these types of breaks are quite common with these older Gibsons.
