This is a 2016 Gibson LesPaul Limited-Edition Traditional Plain Top in Heritage Cherry Burst. NON-weight relived/chambered, '57 Classic Humbuckers, chunky '50s style neck, beautiful and classic Cherry Sunburst. I bought the guitar new last year and have played it a handful of times. 9.9 out of 10 Condition, due to pick swirling on the pickguard and a VERY MINOR amount of worming on the back. 4-5 one inch lines in the size of a two inch diameter. Very shallow, not through the clear coat finish and can only seen at an angle in the light. My iPhone 6 camera won't even pick it up. The guitar is Like New otherwise. Plays and sounds perfect!You can see in the pics that I changed the knobs to Gibson amber top hats, the truss rod cover to a Gibson nondescript version and installed strap locks. The original hardware will be placed back on the guitar prior to shipment, so it will be 100% stock. Comes with the pictured Gibson case, also in like new condition. If you want to see exact specs and details, do a google search for: Sweetwater LPTDP16HSCH3This shows the exact model, which is now no longer available. If you want classic, traditional Les Paul style and tone, you will love this guitar! I have to sell to help fund another project. I play Strats regularly, but had to have this one for fun and enjoyment. Please note: Due to travel, I can't ship the guitar on/between 3/26-4/2. Upon purchase, I will contact the Buyer to provide an exact date for shipment. Here's some additional info I pulled off the internet:The Gibson Les Paul Traditional Plaintop solidbody electric guitar gives you the construction quality, performance, and sound of the great LPs of the past.

This system uses a computer-controlled machine that carefully measures the height between the fingerboard and each string, dresses each fret, and cuts the string nut to optimize intonation and string action. This system virtually eliminates string buzz and provides unbeatable playability. We know that a smooth-playing instrument is important to you, and the Plek'd Les Paul Traditional Plaintop is sure to please.

These models are some of the most popular PAF-style humbuckers on the market. And who better to build them than the company that pioneered the humbucker? Vintage PAF pickups are extremely sought after for their wide range of frequencies and the ability to be powerful without sounding muddy.
