1959 Gibson Les Paul Custom, aka "The Black Beauty."  This guitar's in very good condition.  It plays effortlessly with a recent refret.  The neck has a classic circa '59 carve and due to the lack of shoulders on it, it doesn't feel big.  It's a joy to play.  The PAF pickups sound incredible.  All three pickups have intact stickers, and original solder joints on the covers.  Pots, caps, wiring and all solder joints in the control cavity are factory original. This guitar has tone for days; it sounds seriously killer.  It's had a little work, nothing out of the ordinary; see "Specs" for details.  This Black Beauty comes in its original black Gibson Les Paul Custom case with yellow lining.
