Own a piece of Rock history!  This Custom Studio Les Paul has graced the stage with legendary guitarist, Slash! Wielded by Rauchenstein's Axe-Man, this All Thrills, No Frills Les Paul named "Elvira" is a serious Rock power house!  As any serious guitarist knows, every guitar made has it's own personality.  This guitar was meticulously selected based on it's tonal characteristics.  The Rhythm Pick-Up has a warm, deep tonal quality, while the Bridge Pickup maintains a beautiful balance between "dirty" and "articulate."  Here it in action here:  http://www.rauchenstein.rocks/track/815415/over?feature_id=172389As can be seen by the photos, this guitar is in excellent condition, with very minor wear at the bottom edge.  Cannot be seen while playing!  Guitar sports an Iron Cross, specially crafted in Germany for Rauchenstein.  There is virtually no fret wear, as can be seen in pic #4.Pickups:This guitar sports the 498T (Bridge) and the 490R (Neck)Gibson’s 498T humbucker combines the more powerful response of an Alnico V magnet with additional matched windings on each coil, which puts the emphasis on the pickup’s upper midrange frequencies for enhanced crunch and sustain. The 498T is perfect for any hard rock application, easily overdriving amplifiers for a beefy, sizzling output that boosts any guitar’s power and presence. The pole pieces on the 498T are also aligned a little further apart to accommodate the spacing of the strings at the bridge, which is different than the spacing of the strings at the neck. This aids in producing powerful leads and thick rhythm without sacrificing single-note definition. The 498T features shielded, four-conductor wiring for series, parallel or split coil operation, and is fully wax potted to eliminate any chance of microphonic feedback.The 490R has the tonal characteristics of an original P.A.F., with a slight increase in upper mid-range response. The 490T is calibrated to match the 490R, with pole pieces aligned a little further apart to accommodate the spacing of the strings at the bridge, which is different than the spacing of the strings at the neck.
