{"product_id":"05-2800005649000","title":"[SN 682481] USED Gibson \/ 1972 Les Paul Deluxe Gold Top [05]","description":"A 1972 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe Gold Top has just arrived!!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial No.: 682481; Pot Date: 1971 (manufactured in 1972).\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe Deluxe model went on sale in 1969, shortly after the Les Paul reissue began. Compared to full-size Les Pauls equipped with humbuckers, it was produced for a shorter period; however, its popularity and rarity have been growing year by year thanks to a renewed appreciation for the unique, appealing tone of its mini-humbuckers.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIt features a classic early-’70s Gibson configuration: a “pancake” body with maple sandwiched between mahogany layers, a maple top, and a three-piece mahogany neck with a volute.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIt is equipped with two engraved, numbered mini-humbuckers. Since the production years are slightly off, we believe these have been replaced. Compared to full-size humbuckers, these pickups are characterized by a slightly brighter and tighter tone; they make it easy to convey subtle picking nuances and have excellent projection, giving the guitar a very playable feel.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe visible pot dates are 1377142 × 2; although the rest is obscured by solder, we have determined them to be original. It is also equipped with a “Black Beauty” capacitor.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe selector switch was broken and has been replaced, as has the selector knob. Additionally, one strap pin has been repositioned, and there is one mark where an extra pin was previously installed. The back panel has a slight crack near the screw holes.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nAs for its condition, while there are some dents and scratches, playability—including the truss rod—is good. This is a highly authentic original piece; please take this opportunity to consider it.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition Grade: B+: Some minor scratches, but no issues for normal use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCountry of Manufacture: USA\u003cbr\u003e \nYear of Manufacture: 1972\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: 682481\u003cbr\u003e \nCase: Hard Case \/ Genuine\u003cbr\u003e \nWeight: 4.31 kg\u003cbr\u003e \nFret Wear: Approximately 50% or less\u003cbr\u003e \nTruss Rod: Ample play in both tightening and loosening directions\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck Condition: Good\u003cbr\u003e \nNotes: The only included accessories are those shown in the photos.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, or other imperfections that are not clearly visible in the photos or not listed here.
