For Sale: 2010 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Figured Top – Trans Red w/ OHSC & COA

Up for sale is a 2010 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Figured Top in Trans Red, complete with its original hard-shell case and certificate of authenticity.

This is a very cool Custom Shop Les Paul that combines the upscale look of a figured maple top with the classic Les Paul Custom platform. With its Trans Red finish, gold hardware, ebony fingerboard, and rounded medium ’50s neck, it has a great mix of visual appeal, traditional feel, and strong overall build quality.

This example is in very good condition and has clearly been well cared for.

Condition

I would rate this guitar a solid 8.5/10. It shows only light scratches, some dings, and some tarnish to the gold hardware, but nothing excessive. Please review all photos carefully for the most accurate representation of condition.

There are no cracks, breaks, or repairs. The neck is straight, the frets are in excellent shape, and the guitar plays cleanly up and down the neck with no issues. It has also been recently professionally set up and is ready to go.

The original hard-shell case and certificate of authenticity are both included.

Tone & Feel

This Les Paul has the kind of full, punchy tone you would expect from a good Custom Shop LP, with the 490R / 498T pickup combination offering a nice balance of warmth in the neck and stronger output and bite in the bridge. The rounded medium ’50s neck gives it a comfortable, substantial feel without being overly large, and at 8 lbs 14 oz it has a very solid, reassuring feel in the hands.
