Here is a rare chance to purchase an all original, Gibson Pre-Historic '57 Reissue Les Paul Custom from 1992. These Pre-historics have a reputation as amazing guitars despite not being 100% historically correct, or perhaps because of it? It’s a stunning looking and playing Black Beauty. The top has a superb carve to it. In really nice condition for an early 90’s Custom too. It is one of the most resonant and open Customs I’ve ever played and the original ’57 Classics sound superb; these were Gibson’s first attempt at a proper PAF replica. The weight is 4.7kg. Neck is a good solid '50s profile. It has a lovely dense Ebony fingerboard. Condition wise it is exceptional. A few little scuffs here an there on the back mainly. It’s really been looked after. No buckle rash or nasty big dings. No history of breaks or repairs. Neck is dead straight truss rod checked and functioning fine, plenty of life left in the frets, which still have their nibs. Complete with original tan hardshell case with pink silk shroud, in fine working condition. Al latches working perfectly but the combi lock is not catching. This is an absolutely stunning custom. If you are looking for the ultimate 90’s Gibson Black Beauty, this is probably it. I’ll let the pics tell the rest of the story…
