A completely original and excellent vintage early-1980s Gibson Les Paul “Chainsaw” Case

This is the highly desirable Gen 3 Chainsaw case (second and most popular version), produced in the early 1980s and considered by many to be the best hard case Gibson ever made for the Les Paul.

Correct for early ’80s Gibson Les Pauls, and famously favored by owners of real ’58, ’59, and ’60 Bursts due to its exceptional protection, durability, and lightweight molded design.

  • Original Gibson molded “Chainsaw” hardshell case
  • Black exterior with integrated molded handle
