Here’s a seriously tidy example of a mid-2000s Gibson Les Paul Standard, complete with the chunkier ’50s neck profile and a lovely Tobacco Burst finish. For a 2005 guitar, this one is in amazing condition — the sort of thing you just don’t see very often anymore.
There are only a handful of tiny marks here and there, and almost no buckle rash at all, which is pretty incredible for a 20-year-old Les Paul. Frets are excellent and it plays beautifully, feels properly solid, and delivers that big, warm, classic Les Paul voice you expect from this era.
Comes with the original Gibson hardcase.
