USED GIBSON USA / Custom Shop Edition M-III-H Deluxe Amber [20]

The M-III is a Gibson model with a distinctive style that epitomized the music scene of that era.
This 1991 model was released during a period when many manufacturers were introducing products geared toward hard rock.
There is a “Custom Shop Edition” decal on the back of the neck, suggesting it may have been part of a limited production run from that era.
The pickups feature a rare 2H configuration rather than the standard HSH layout, which is likely related to the aforementioned “Custom Shop Edition” designation.
Despite its distinctive appearance, this is a legendary instrument with high-quality sound and a large following of devoted fans.
Front Pickup: Dirty Finger; Rear Pickup: 500T * The front pickup has been replaced with a gold-colored model, and the rear pickup has also been replaced with a 500T from a different production year.

* The neck exhibits signs of twisting, which has been corrected through fret leveling; as a result, the frets are now quite low.

The guitar shows significant weather checking overall; in particular, the top and sides of the headstock, the fingerboard surface and sides, and the neck joint area have numerous small chips in the finish, and new chips are still appearing.
The back panel is missing, and the remaining parts show signs of tarnish and rust.
There is paint peeling on the body horns and near the endpin at the bottom of the body, along with numerous dents accompanied by chipped, cracked, or dented paint.
