1997 Gibson USA Les Paul Standard Smart Wood edition. Good plus condition. The Guitar has been played so there is ware marks, dings on the body with also some worming on the back. The neck is break, crack, ding and repair free. The frets look good with plenty of life. There is a mark on the right side on the back of the neck that is under the finish and can't be felt. A few marks on the headstock face and top. Most of the above can only be seen in the right light and you have to be looking for imperfections. Some ware of the gold hardware. All Original except for the oversized strap buttons.

Crafted from responsibly sourced wood and certified by the Rainforest Alliance, this exquisite guitar exemplifies the values of socially conscious musicians. In 1997, Gibson introduced the SmartWood guitar line, featuring instruments made from sustainably harvested "Smart Wood" - a variety of exotic rare woods that preserve the environment. Boasting a stunning top with hues of yellow and irregular strips of light brown, a mahogany neck with the tropical, non-endangered hardwood Chechen, and complemented by Gibson 490R and 498T humbucker pickups and luxurious gold hardware, including a Tune-o-matic bridge. Plays and Sounds Great. Sounds like a great Les Paul, made for sustainable woods to appease the tree lovers in the 1990s.

No Trades!!!!!!!!

I am getting to retirement age and I have collected too much gear over the past 30 plus years. I'm not playing in a band anymore, I just occasionally play acoustic at church. So I'm slowly selling quality gear that's just sitting here unused.

99% of my gear (including this) has never had played out by me or left my climate controlled, pet free, and smoke free home.

This item is listed for less on other fee free sites thegearpage, rigtalk, Craigslist and Facebook marketplace, so it may sell at any time.
