Up for sale, a 2015 Gibson ES-Les Paul Custom in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case, CoA, and hangtags. Crafted at the Memphis, TN factory, this ES-Les Paul combines the familiar size and tonewood combination of a Les Paul with semi-hollow ES body construction, featuring a maple body, mahogany centerblock, and Adirondack spruce top bracing.
Featherweight at 6lbs 9oz, this ES Les Paul Custom is loaded with a pair of Memphis Historic Spec (MHS) handwound humbuckers. Designed specifically for hollowbody instruments, the MHS pickups are wound a bit more conservatively than other Gibson PAFs, pairing particularly well with the natural sonic breadth a semi-hollow instrument provides. There's plenty of chirp, sparkle and growl in the treble register, with excellent note clarity and detailed, round low end. This ES Les Paul Custom has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
