Description

This 1958 Gibson Les Paul Special in TV finish is stunning. This guitar is in exceptionally fine condition and one of the cleaner TV Specials we've had in a while. Weighing in at eight pounds even with two killer sounding P-90 pickups the guitar is a joy to play and listen to. The neck's a classic '58 affair, good sized and artfully carved. The dimensions suggest a big neck but the way the shoulders are dressed, it doesn't feel big; it just feels... perfect. This guitar is all original except for the fact that we addressed the tuner button decay by replacing the buttons. Other than the buttons, it's as it left Kalamazoo during the later part of the Eisenhower era. The guitar comes with a new 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.
