This 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom is a classic example from the Norlin era, featuring a mahogany body with a maple top, ebony fingerboard, and two added DiMarzio pickups. Known for its sustain, smooth playability, and elegant appointments—including block inlays and multi-ply binding—this model delivers the signature Les Paul punch with vintage vibe. This example has undergone several changes that are detailed under the Specs tab. Comes with the original hardshell case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
