1955 Gibson Les Paul Custom – Black

Well Strung Guitars

Description

This 1955 Gibson Les Paul Custom in its original Black finish is one hell of a player! These all-mahogany Customs have such an excellent strong sound. Paired with one P-90 and one Alnico pickup (both beautifully voiced), this Custom has many capabilities in its tone: from searing hot, to mellow and clean, to everything in between. This one isn’t a fretless wonder, as it’s been professionally fitted with a bone nut and refretted with a nice medium-jumbo wire, making playing especially enjoyable.  


Overall Condition: 7.5, light checking, even playwear throughout the entire guitar
