Very special guitar here.

Serial number 83185565.

"White" color, but significantly faded and nicotined out. Does not have smoke smell.

Professional headstock crack repair that looks quite old. Very stable, not a full break.

The action is extremely low and plays lightning fast. There is fret wear present, and the frets are very low. If you don't like that feel this guitar won't be for you unless you get a refret.

Included are all of the original parts including the highly desirable Tim Shaw PAF hum buckers which are date stamped to 1985. believe this is one of the final years for guitars to be equipped with these pickups and they sound incredible.

The original wiring harness with 1985 dated pots is included however it was professionally replaced with 500k pots.

Also included are the original tuners which are functional but a few were really tight to turn. They were replaced with new vintage spec'd ones that replicate the originals in every way.

Moderate/heavy dings and scraps for the age. I did my best to show them in the photos as well as the beautiful natural finish checking. The headstock even has the signature Randy Rhodes LP cigarette burn.

I'm quite pained to let it go, but it needs to get more play.

A quick rundown: fully functional, all original parts included, non original Gibson custom case, professional crack repair.
