Gibson Les Paul Collectors Choice #29A Tamio Okuda Aged
Gibson CC 29A ) Tamio Okuda I have a few people who have messaged me re this guitar but appear not to get my replies. Please text me or call me Limited Edition of 300 (Aged & VOS) for the whole world! - I am unaware of how many were actually made (but it was no more than 300) and no idea how many were aged and how many were VOS. This one is the more expensive AGED version. This one is serial number 151 - The date on the paperwork says 11 May - It's a killer Collectors Choice Les Paul, in a very unique Sunburst, which you don't often see on many bursts. One of the best tops on the CC range if you ask me. I purchased the guitar brand new from an authorised Gibson dealer. This guitar is virtually unplayed (apart form a couple of hours max playing by me before I put her away for a rainy day). Everything that came with the guitar is still in the box, all papers, certificate, hang tags, replacement switch cover, etc. From the Gibson site and the net in general. The Collector's Choice #29 Tamio Okuda Les Paul brings you a stunning re-creation of the prized guitar in a noted Japanese star's collection. Close analysis of the original instrument has enabled details such as the light figuring of the guitar's plain maple top, its distinctive dish carve, the neck profile, a historic truss-rod assembly with no tubing, and its gently faded Sunburst finish (available in hand-aged and VOS renditions) to all be accurately reproduced. Add Tamio's choice of 57 Classic humbuckers and Bumblebee tone caps and CC#29 is primed to sound as superb as it looks and feels.
