Another quality Guitar from Lovies Guitars!

Lovies Guitars is excited to present this 1974 Gibson Les Paul Custom 20th Anniversary Electric Guitar finished in Ebony Black. Celebrating two decades of the iconic Les Paul Custom, the 20th Anniversary model remains one of the most sought-after Norlin-era Gibsons. Featuring the unmistakable "Black Beauty" styling with multi-ply binding, block inlays, and luxurious appointments, this vintage Les Paul delivers the thick sustain, punchy midrange, and unmistakable authority that have made the Les Paul Custom a legend. This particular example has been thoughtfully upgraded over the years into an outstanding player's guitar while retaining all of the vintage vibe that makes these mid-'70s Customs so desirable.

Built with a solid Mahogany body, carved Maple top, and three-piece Maple neck, this Les Paul offers excellent sustain, articulation, and rich harmonic complexity. It has been upgraded with a vintage Seymour Duncan '59 neck pickup and a custom Seymour Duncan bridge pickup, providing exceptional clarity, warmth, and punch. The neck pickup also features a push/pull coil split, adding impressive tonal versatility beyond the traditional Les Paul platform. The guitar has been professionally refretted for outstanding playability, while Sperzel locking tuners improve tuning stability for modern performance.

Finished in timeless Ebony Black, this 20th Anniversary Custom wears its fifty-plus years with pride. Honest finish wear and natural aging give the guitar the authentic appearance of a vintage instrument that has been played and enjoyed. It is an excellent choice for players seeking vintage Gibson tone without the worry of keeping an all-original collector piece under glass.

This guitar comes complete with its Original Hardshell Case (OHSC).

Condition: 8.7/10 - Very Good. Shows finish wear around the bridge posts, heavy buckle rash on the back, several dings along the lower and upper waist on the sides, and honest cosmetic wear throughout. The top remains relatively clean with only a few dings, while the back of the neck is also fairly clean. Professionally refretted and upgraded for excellent playability.
