Something a bit special 58 Stinger in "Light Orange Burst" gloss finish that was from the 2nd run of Guitar Center "Burst Brothers" B9 '59's. There were about 18 of these guitars and the B9 serial numbers were covered with the black stinger and then given R8 serial numbers. Guitar weighs 8 lbs 8 ounces, very vintage accurate neck profile that measures: 1st fret - .870", 12th fret - .948", great looking fingerboard with nice color, Custom Bucker pickups that read: bridge - 7.84K, neck - 7.79K, stellar sounding guitar that has a real old vibe to the tone, very clear and focused with just enough bottom end punch without getting muddy, great mids that have a real honky nasal squawk, top end has some smooth bite and presence, overall just a great classic LP tone, comes with all paperwork, certificate and black Gibson Custom case possible px .07989350264 Billy
