Up for sale, a 1990 Gibson Les Paul Custom in like-new, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. This Les Paul Custom dates to an increasingly heralded era of Gibson production colloquially known as the “good wood” era, featuring a carved flame maple top, mahogany body, mahogany neck, bound ebony fingerboard, and a pair of Bill Lawrence-designed Super Humbuckers.
Weighing 10lbs 8oz, the guitar delivers a bold, muscular acoustic voice with great warmth and treble chime. At the heart of this Les Paul Custom are a pair of Bill Lawrence-designed Super Humbuckers, known colloquially as Gibson's "circuit board" pickups. These short-lived medium output pickups handle gain extremely well, delivering a detailed array of tones that can be bright and growly or thick and punchy with the flip of a switch. This Les Paul Custom has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

-Wood: Mahogany
-Shape: Medium C, measuring .830” 1st fret, .955” 12th fret

-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear
-Scale Length: 24 3/4”
-Nut: 1 11/16”

The gloss Vintage Sunburst nitro lacquer finish highlights the tight, straight flame figuring in the carved, two-piece maple top, and there are just a couple faint scratches on the body as a whole. The smooth nitro gloss on the neck profile is flawless.
The original molded hardshell “chainsaw” (Protector) case is included; the handle is split in the middle, but is usable.
