Selling my personal Lyle MIJ from 70s law-suit era. Stunning instrument with the quality and sound, that Gibson would be looking over their shoulder :)

I initially got it as the husk, and built it up myself with best quality components. The custom P90s sound just like Seymour antiquity - best tone ever. All pots and wiring work impeccably, Kluson tuners, Gibson truss cover, Switchcraft toggle, and my personal choice - Guitarman decal. Just ike I said - this guitar has been build to my specs and everyone around admiration. Trust me - I know what I am talking about after owning a bunch of ES-175s, L7, 225 - you name it. It beats them all big time!

Number one - the playability is unbelievable ( I'll have to admit some "conveniences" of the shorter scale 175 though). It plays like butter and the neck is a total joy!

Number two - build quality. It simply screams - quality!

And number three - its tone - it is simply delicious!

And finally - number four - it looks like its big brother - kinda a marriage child of L5 wutg es-325.

What else:

The pickguard I initially cut out myself for a single pickup es-225, so had to accommodate it for this instrument.

Part of the bracket is from es-165 - for those whom it matters ( for real?).

Nuff said - nothing to complain about. Maybe that this guitar is on the heavy weight side, which keeps totally stable and not moving around. One of the most convenient instrument that I played standing up.

No hard case, but it would be packed securely and shipped out safely.

See the videos: seeing is believing :)

And please, please ask questions!

Thank you!
