1955 Gibson Les Paul Custom - Ebony
1955 Gibson Les Paul Custom - Ebony incl. Case
1955 Les Paul Custom in "Road warrior" condition but all original and a great player. Heavy weatherchecking and signs of a removed Bigsby B5 Vibrato which has been installed once and plenty of dings and dongs all over. We´ve got the guitar refretted, now its very comfortable to play. Nice big neck-profil but not chunky at all. Unbelievable, but the original electronic has never been touched and works just fine, all 4 pots date to 23rd week of 1953, the original AlNiCo pickup in the neck-position and the P-90 on the bridge are well balanced and sound just great!The yellow inked serialnumber on the back of the headstock is faded but readable. Comes in non original black hardshell-case.
