Finished in the classic Ebony 'tuxedo' finish, this is a wonderful find for the left-handed player. These Norlin-era Les Paul Customs only continue to get more desireable as they age, and represent both a lovely vintage buy, and solid investment that will only continue to appreciate over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example is in fantastic original condition, with a rich lutrous black lacquer finish, and only light tarnishing to the gold plated hardware (many have the gold completely worn off). There is also a distinct lack of chips, and serious dings like we commonly see on instruments of this age. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll original, with all 4 pots dated 1985, and 2 original pickups \u0026amp; hardware. The only minor exception is 4 back plate screws, which swapped for black ones (of the correct size).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt came to us with minor headstock\/neck damage at the nut area (a common area on these non-volute headstocks). We had Dave at Southwest Guitars Repairs do a complete professional repair (including stress test) to ensure it is future-proofed for the next owner. The only evidence is the new finish is slightly glossier, but will fade over time.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe C neck, Ebony fretboard, 12” radius, and 1 11\/16” nut width making this Gibson Les Paul comfortable and fast to play. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt’s not light, but its weight is reflected in its bold, thick tone and sustain.\u003cbr\u003eWeight is approx 4.95kg on our scales.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA classic Les Paul Custom that is becoming more and more sort after! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eComes with original  Gibson USA 'Chainsaw' hardcase.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53838664565055,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G12074967","price":3999.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/MG_5150_599a9536-2773-448f-9b62-0baf724e1cc1.jpg?v=1782094489","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/gibson-les-paul-custom-ebony-1986-left-handed-pre-owned","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
