On offer is the iconic 1989 Gibson Les Paul Custom 35th Anniversary 3 Pick-up Black Beauty, accompanied by its original hard-shell case. This Les Paul, embodying the classic Black Beauty aesthetic, bears the marks of its musical journey, with scratches, dings, and clear coat chipping around the tuners on the front of the headstock. Notably, a filled-in strap button hole on the back, a remnant of a previous strap button, has been expertly addressed, providing a seamless appearance.
In good condition and perfect working order, this guitar boasts a solid 7.5 out of 10 rating. The original pickups have been replaced with Seymour Duncan JBs for the bridge and middle positions and a Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates for the neck position, adding a versatile tonal palette while preserving the essence of the Black Beauty. Importantly, the guitar is free from cracks, repairs, or other structural issues. The neck maintains a straight profile, and the original frets are in excellent condition, promising a smooth playing experience without buzzing or dead spots.
Recent setup work further enhances the guitar's playability. The original case, while exhibiting some wear and a replaced handle, remains functional and continues to protect this historic instrument. Detailed photos of the wear offer full transparency, allowing potential buyers to inspect the actual guitar for sale, not generic stock photos. Thank you for considering this 35th Anniversary Black Beauty, a cherished piece of Gibson history with a unique touch of customization.
