In 1984, Gibson left its location at 225 Parsons St., however the Kalamazoo factory continued to turn out beautifully handcrafted guitars, thanks to the ex-Gibsonites who formed Heritage. This classic-inspired solidbody, though engraved as a "factory second" on the back of the headstock, is in like new condition, with very little finish wear and minor checking around the volume and tone knobs. Compared to a modern Les Paul Standard, this model features a slightly thicker and heavier body and a slimmer headstock.
