The guitar sounds absolutely incredible. The guitar is used and has been loved on, it is absolutely in perfect working order!

The guitar is all original and unmodified and features the Floyd Rose Tremolo Bar System. Includes original Hard case and COA.WEIGHS in at: 7.90 lbs..824” at the 1st.993” at the 12thAdditional Information for those new to this great guitar: A Gibson Les Paul for the new millennia upgraded with hotter pickups for even more tonal combinations.The Gibson Les Paul Axcess Standard electric guitar carries all the elegant styling, fluid body lines, and rocking attitude of a classic Les Paul Standard from the golden era of 1958 to ’60. The Les Paul Axcess Standard reveals a handful of upgrades upon closer examination—all modifications made in the name of maximum playability and versatility.While the Axcess electric guitar sports what looks from the front to be a traditional Gibson Les Paul neck joint, the neck heel and portions of the back and neck joint at the upper cutaway have been contoured to provide a “heelless” feel and an unimpeded reach right up to the 22nd fret. No more stretching against the traditional neck heel to achieve the upper-fret access that your lead style demands—the Gibson Les Paul Axcess guitar gives you that sought-after Les Paul playability all the way up the neck, and welcomes you to take it right over the top.To further enhance playing comfort, the Gibson Les Paul guitar’s smoothly carved neck joint is joined by a “belly scarf” (a.k.a. ribcage contour) that allows the body of the electric guitar to hug closely to your own body in the playing position without digging in. Add to these contours the Gibson Les Paul Axcess guitar’s slightly thinner body, made from weight-relieved mahogany (with carved maple top), and you’ve also got a Les Paul guitar that is refreshingly light, and a pure joy to play either strapped on or seated.The Gibson Les Paul Axcess Standard guitar now comes juiced with two super hot Gibson pickups, the 498T and the 496R. These forces to reckoned with pickups yield numerous tonal opportunities and can help drive your favorite amp to ultra crunch and scorching — leads in addition to providing ballsy blues tones, warm, fluid vocal tones, snappy country, and fat — sweet growls. Instead of just being able to split both pickups at the same time with one push/pull (like the original Gibson Les Paul Axcess configuration), you can now “split” each guitar pickup separately by pulling up either the rhythm or treble tone knob which allows you to blend “single coil” tones with full humbucking tones. This gives 2 more pickup settings than the original Gibson Les Paul Axcess Standard configuration thereby providing a wider array of tones. Simply pull up the treble and/or rhythm tone control knobs to “axcess” single coil tones and experiment with combining full humbucking with single coil tones, etc.&hellip:Being a product of the Gibson Custom Shop, the Les Paul Axcess is an electric guitar built to the highest standards attainable, which include a final setup and fret dressing by the computer-controlled PLEK System. All Gibson Les Paul Standard necks receive precision fret dressing and setup with the Plek system. As the guitar lies in a cradle, a computer-controlled robot arm moves along the neck measuring each fret’s height, the fingerboard radius, even the bow in the neck. Using that data, the Plek machine adjusts the truss rod, cuts the nut slots for optimal spacing and height for each string, files each fret to a hundredth of a millimeter accuracy, and then polishes the frets. In a fraction of the time it takes a skilled technician, the Plek machine eliminates buzzing strings and dead spots, producing a neck with flawless intonation and superb action.Each Gibson Les Paul Axcess Standard guitar also comes with a custom shop hardshell case, and a custom shop certificate of authenticity.Check the drop-down menu to the right to select colors and/or other options.FeaturesBodyBody style: Gibson Les PaulBody: weight-relieved mahogany back with belly scarfTop: carved figured mapleNeckNeck: 1-piece set mahoganyNeck profile: rounded neck profile with contoured heel cutPeghead pitch: 17 degreesNeck joint location: 16th fretFingerboard: rosewoodScale length: 24-3/4″No. Of frets: 22Nut width: 1-11/16″Neck inlays: pearloid trapezoidHardwareHardware: chromeBridge: Tune-O-Matic With Stopbar TailpieceKnobs: gold top hatsTuners: vintage tulipElectronicsNeck pickup: 496R humbuckerBridge pickup: 498T humbuckerControls: two volume, two tone, (push/pull switch treble pickup tone for series/parallel coil splitting), 3-way toggle pickup selectorOtherCase: custom shop hardshellAdditional: certificate of authenticityCall Derick Anytime: 619-201-2781Buy with Confidence: 14 Money Back Return Policy
