How's it going! You're looking at a 1970s Memphis 103T LP-Style Tobacco Sunburst Electric Guitar!


Made in the late 1970s, this Memphis 103T is a classic 'lawsuit-era' style Les Paul copy that captures the true essence of vintage Japanese and Korean imports. The guitar features a chunky, C-shaped neck profile that feels substantial but comfortable in hand. It utilizes a laminated wood body construction, making it noticeably lighter than a heavy, solid-wood Gibson. The bolt-on neck design gives the guitar a snappy, immediate response, while the standard Tune-o-matic bridge offers solid tuning stability and a comfortable resting place for your picking hand during palm-muting. Plugged in, the vintage humbuckers deliver a warm, punchy, and medium-output tone that handles everything from smooth blues to raw, classic rock crunch. Cosmetically, this guitar is in good vintage condition, showing moderate playwear from previous use, including minor scratches and scuffs around the exterior of the body. Notably, the pickguard is cracked in the top corner where it meets the neck, and there is a small, superficial dent in the fretboard (please see the provided photos for detail).Functionally, the guitar is excellent. All electronics are in full working order, the neck is straight, and the action is set up beautifully for easy playability. Fret wear is very minor, leaving plenty of life for years of playing. This guitar has been professionally set up with new strings, weighing in at 8 pounds, 3 ounces. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own this vintage Lawsuit Era Memphis!!
