2007 Gibson Custom Shop ’68 Reissue Les Paul Custom – Ebony Black Beauty | Long Tenon | ’57 Classics | COA + OHSC

For sale is a 2007 Gibson Custom Shop Historic ’68 Reissue Les Paul Custom in timeless Ebony—a faithful, vintage-spec recreation of the iconic 1968 Black Beauty.

This reissue pulls out all the stops: a maple top over a mahogany body, long neck tenon, chunky 50s neck profile, and Gibson ’57 Classic humbuckers that deliver the warm, articulate vintage tones you’d expect from a guitar with this kind of pedigree.

Includes the original Gibson Custom Shop hard-shell case and certificate of authenticity.
