2016 Gibson Les Paul 50s Tribute - Satin Goldtop FinishAbsolutely mint condition. Case candy and factory paperwork included. Only 3 hours of play time on it when I purchased it (recently) and I only played it maybe 1 hour myself. I am the second owner and have decided to stick with my other guitars. That’s not to say that this is not a terrific instrument - it is - but after 2-3 tries now with different LPs, I’ve come to the realization that I’m just not a Les Paul guy. This model has everything you’d want in an LP. Classy looks, thumpy low end, mellow jazz tones when you want them, screaming lead tones when you need them. Nice chunky 50s neck contour. It came with 9s but I strung it with 11s and tweaked the setup to account for the heavier gauge.Absolutely no nicks or blemishes anywhere. Only a few light marks on the pick guard and the plastic is still on. No pet/garage/smoke/funky smells. Stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. Weighs 7.8 pounds - lighter than most LPs thanks to the chambered body. Easy to tune and stays that way. Gigbag is in like-new condition. Lots of plush padding.
