USED Gibson Custom / Historic Collection 1959 Les Paul Standard Gloss Royal Teaburst 2018 [10]

A 2018, lightweight 59LP with a gloss finish!

Historic Collection back in 2018. Neck shape taken from the original 1959, with a slightly faded Aniline Dye Cherry back. This is a gloss version in Royal Tea Burst color.

The body is full of wildness with flecks present around the knobs and on the left side of the body with good atmosphere. The figured top also has a deep and deep tone, and changes its expression when the angle is changed. When you hold the neck in your right hand and look down at it from a low position, you can say that this guitar embodies the ideal shape of the 59, with wild wood grain covering the entire surface. The color also reproduces the browning of the reddish tone of the outer circumference, and the back woodwork is also top grade. The total weight is only 3.81kg! The PU is an original Custombucker. The basic construction features a hide glue neck and top fit, tubeless truss rod, long stud anchors, true historic parts, and other features that do not differ much from recent models.

The body has wipe scratches, scuffs, dings, and paint gaps. There is a paint gap of about 5cm in length at the lower right edge binding of the body top. The aniline die on the body back has come off with age, and there is still some reddish color around the strap pins just at the side of the body end. There is a small ding on the side of the jack plate, and large and small dings are scattered on the lower left side of the body. There is a small ding on the lower left side of the selector panel and some polishing marks around it. The tip of the head has a ton of dings and scratches. The jack plate has been replaced. Each hardware has a little bit of cuss marks and signs of use.

The neck condition is fine, and the truss rod can be adjusted in the direction to tighten or loosen, and can still be turned and adjusted in the direction to tighten. There are no string marks on the frets and about 80% of the frets are left. Currently, the string height is adjusted at about 2.0mm on the 6th string (12F) and about 1.5mm on the 1st string (12F).

Overall, there is a ding on the lower left side of the body, but there is no noticeable damage on the top. It is not a gorgeous top, but it is a top that many players would love to have, as it has a variety of expressions depending on the angle. The sound is also good, with an exquisite tone that has excellent response and a great flavor, which can only be achieved with this grade. This is not a collector's item, but one that players should definitely choose!
