Gibson Custom 1968 Les Paul Custom VOS Ebony [SN 000208] (12/09)

$ 5126.69

Gibson’s Les Paul Custom has been a favorite for many years.
It features a hard rock maple top and lightweight mahogany body, glued with hide glue just like vintage. The pickups are 57Classic.
Diamond split inlays and head binding are typical of higher-end models, as well as KLUSON 501-VX tuners and sombrero knobs on the control knobs.
The neck joint is a deep joint specification with a deeper joint to the bottom of the neck pickup.
This model was released with very high quality and was very popular.
The original 68 Les Paul Custom was very expensive in the vintage market, so we recommend this one as the closest reissue model.

There is a binding gouge on the head. There is a sticker mark on the back of the body.
Overall, there are scratches, dents, and rust on the metal, showing signs of use.
There is no noticeable abnormality on the neck, and the playing condition is fine.
The string that holds the case half open is torn off.
