Euro Lawsuit Heavy Relic Les Paul (1970s, Black Relic)

Here for sale is a "Euro" brand Les Paul.  I have been able to find very little about them online, the only real concrete piece of info I have found is that it was probably made in Korea either during the Lawsuit era, or right there after. I would assume, being made in Korea, that this was made by Samick or some similarly owned Korean company. If this is true, then after this was made, Samick would go on to ghost build for Epiphone, meaning it is safe to assume that this guitar is pretty close to a real Les.  

I think the aged/reliced black looks STUNNING with the gold hardware.  An aged black beauty. When I got it, someone had taken a screwdriver to it to chip off some large spots in the finish and leave some rather unappealing scratches.  I have sanded this down and tried to make it look more like play wear.  I am actually pretty happy with how it turned out for how bad it looked when I got it. The relic looks pretty good. A few gigs and this guitar will really look broken in. It now looks more like a worn guitar than an abused guitar.  

The electronics were messed up and rewired as well, so I have had them all redone.  Should sound great now, and the wiring should hold for decades.

As always, I changed the strings, oiled the board, polished the finish, and tweaked the set up. She was a bit of work, but now this guitar looks and sounds great!  A mean player for someone who wants vintage Les Paul tone without shelling out a small fortune.  

Comes with a deluxe Gibson USA gig bag, lined in white fur.
