Up for sale, a 1992 Gibson Les Paul Standard Plus in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case and hangtags. This upper-tiered “Plus” iteration of the Les Paul Standard features a AAA carved maple cap with bookmatched curly flame figuring, framed by the gloss Honey Burst nitro lacquer finish.

The 490R and 498T humbuckers offer a wide tonal palette, with the Alnico II magnets in the neck pickup delivering more chime and warmth, while the Alnico V bridge pickup has great midrange growl and presence.

The gloss Honey Burst nitro lacquer finish highlights the curly flame figuring which extends evenly with great dimension across the AAA maple cap. The top presents very cleanly, with just a couple minor marks and some additional small dings on the back and lower bout perimeter. The neck profile retains its smooth nitro gloss save for an area of shallow rack rash central to the carve behind frets 6-7 that has been buffed smooth.

A black tolex Gibson USA hardshell case is included, along with the serialized hangtags and original (never installed) pickguard.
