About this listing
Gibson Custom 1957 Les Paul Custom Reissue, Custombucker Alnico III 3-Pickup, Bigsby, VOS (Vintage Original Spec), Ebony (Black Beauty) The guitar has hardly been used and is in near mint/new condition. It has spent the majority of its life in its case and stored in an optimal climate. It has never been used live, only played within my house. Guitar has recently been setup with D'addario NYXL 10/46 strings.There is very minor wear that is imperceptible without very close inspection. These guitars come pre aged so I believe some of the wear was there when I bought it new.Guitar comes with all that was in the case when bought. This includes: certificate of authenticity, instructions on bridge and pickup adjustment, tone instructions and Gibson Custom factory information on the build and finish.The Gibson Custom case is in near mint/new condition. All three case keys and Allen key are present.This guitar is truly fabulous with unmatched tone and aesthetic. I'm selling purely because I have a preference for playing Fender style guitars over Gibson. This guitar deserves to played. It doesn't get better than this!Gibson description:The Original Black BeautyGibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence.
