This is a genuine 1997 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Ultima "Tree of Life"

It represents one of Gibson’s most prestigious and ornate Les Pauls. The flagship of the Custom Shop line. Early-production Ultimas (1996–1998) are extremely collectible for their meticulous craftsmanship and very limited output. The “Tree of Life” version features a full abalone vine inlay across the ebony fingerboard

Very well taken care of, little play wear, finish has a couple of spots of lacquer checking on top and headstock (see photos)

Fresh setup with excellent playability

All original

Lightweight 8 lbs 5 oz

Comes with original hardshell case
