Here we have a just gorgeous and extraordinarily clean '56 Ri with a Bigsby. This has a beautifully subtle top. Although my role here is to bring you guys guitars- sometimes a pending listing makes me hesitate, because I like them so much! The top on this is just sublime, it's not one of those in-your-face loud tops that scream Look At Me, this is more of a buttoned-up, straight backed, well postured, serene-in-the-face-of-danger Les Paul. When I look at this guitar i get a feeling kind of like when you were a kid looking for your Dad in a crowd (or replace Dad with whoever made you feel safe), and when you saw him you just felt alright again.
The P-90's give it the tone of a classic rock machine that can be tamed to civility with the volume pots and the Bigsby gives it that added touch of class and the harmonic stereo effects of a chord that can breathe. Overall the condition is 10 out of 10 except for a tiny ding at the back edge near the input jack. Guess that proves that even gentlemen can get into bar brawls! Comes with all the associated case candy including the pickguard (I'm a pick guard off kind of guy when it comes to luscious Les Paul's), COA, and sundries.
