1961 Gibson Les Paul Special DC – TV Yellow

Nice ´61 Les Paul Special in rare TV-Yellow finish, excellent cond. and all original. One of the last LP Specials, as they´ve allready started the now SG-body shape at this time. This instrument propably is an early modell, as all 4 pots are the original Centrallab´s, dated to 1959 and the neck is definately not the skinny, slim 60s type, but rather a comfortable med-size C-shaped neck! There have been Grover tuners on the headstock once, the original “2/3 Kluson on the stripe” tuners are back on now. Lightweight and great tone ! Comes in a newer brown Gibson hardshell case.
