Super clean 1961 Les Paul Special in rare TV-Yellow finish in excellent cond. and all original. One of the last LP Specials, as they´ve allready started the now SG-body shape at this time. Very ligtweigt with only 3,37 Kg, no cracks, or hidden repairs, propably on of the cleanest TV-Specials around. Untouched soderjoints, all 4 pots are the original Centralab´s, dated to 1959 (134.59.47), two original “Bumble-Bee” capacitors and the two original P-90 “Soap-bar” pickups a well balanced with an output of 8,1k and 8,2K.
