Gibson Les Paul Traditional (R9, Historic, Standard)
This is a great Gibson Les Paul Traditional with a beautiful ocean blue flamed maple top. The Les Paul Traditional is a remake of the late ’50s Les Pauls. It has a solid mahogany body (without weight relief) and a one-piece ’59 neck, which creates serious sustain. The guitar comes with the Gibson’s ’59 Tribute Humbuckers, which have been designed to re-create the tones of the legendary 59 bursts. This guitar sounds the part! Versatile, classic, fat Les Paul tones a la ZZ TOP, Slash, Joe Bonamassa, Randy Rhoades, name it. This guitar delivers. If you don’t want to spend 3-5 times the price of this guitar for a Custom Shop R9 or a Historic 59, this guitar is it. The instrument is in top condition, but has a small blemish and colour repair at the right top end of the headstock (see photo). Very minor issue but I sell the guitar for this reason 100 pounds below average market value. (Reverb lists the 2d hand value of this guitar between and (of which I think the latter is way overpriced). I list it for and invite nearby offers. Comes with original Gibson hard case.
