USED Gibson Custom Shop / Historic Collection 1957 Les Paul Custom Ebony [12]

An early Historic Collection Les Paul Custom has arrived.
The "Historic Collection" boasts a long-standing popularity as a Les Paul Custom model from the 1950s—often referred to as the golden age—and continues to this day.
This is a 1994 model Les Paul Custom, based on the 1957 specifications, representing the early days of the collection.

Faithfully recreating the specifications of that era, it features a one-piece mahogany body and an ebony fingerboard, delivering a tight, fast-attacking sound characterized by mid to high-mid frequencies.

With its jet-black finish and gold hardware, this is a masterpiece that allows you to fully experience the elegant beauty of the vintage Les Paul Custom—truly deserving of the name “Black Beauty.”

Equipped with 57Classic pickups, it faithfully captures the nuances of your picking, producing a delicate and deep tone.
Overall, there are scratches, dents, some discoloration on the finish, and tarnish on the metal parts.
The frets have more than 70% of their original depth remaining, the neck is in good condition, and the truss rod is adjustable.
