Exceptional Vintage Gibson Les Paul Artisan. Very rare guitar, especially in dual pickup configuration. In my opinion, one of the most beautiful Gibson produced guitars ever. All original down to locking case with key, bottom strap lock has been upgraded but original is included. All inlays still present which is also seldom found on these. High condition with 95% of gold still present on hardware. Has been played and has a few light imperfections, worst of which are typical scratches in finish on back in right light, but still the nicest example of an Artisan I have ever run across. 2 owner Tennessee guitar, 1981 manufacture. Would heavily prefer to sell locally in Nashville to avoid the worry of shipping this beauty, can meet at local music shops for inspection of serious buyers.Might trade on vintage shortbed pickup, or high quality but lower priced guitar with cash difference.Payment due at time of purchase, PayPal or cash only, may consider bank wires, continental us shipping only at stated rate. happy to allow inspections of serious buyers.  Text six 1 five 4 one eight five 2 oh nine, ask questions before bidding.International buyers pay actual cost of shipping.
