This is a beautiful 1999 Gibson Les Paul Standard Double Cut with a Natural Maple Carved Top and a Chambered Mahogany body. It appears to be a 60's or a 50's Historic Re-issue. It has small trapezoid inlays like a 60's Gibson 335. The pickups are PAF style 57 classic in the neck, 57 classic plus in the bridge with the "Patent Applied For" stickers, and M-69 Historic RI cream pickup rings.

It has a thin comfortable neck and plays like a dream. The guitar is in near mint condition with the exception of some wear around the headstock and the Grover tuning keys have some finish wear. The body or neck do not have a nick on them. The neck is straight and plays fast. The action is low and there is no buzzing. It was professionally setup and owned by Rick Asmega, an emmy-winning producer. There is very minor fret wear at the first three frets but it does not affect the intonation, action, etc.

The natural maple top is really rare and gorgeous. This instrument is so amazing. Huge Les Paul Sound and Tone without the weight. It only weighs 8 pounds and has a 1.5" thick body.

The neck is 0.803" thick at the 1st fret, 0.900" at the 12th fret. Nut width is 1 11/16" wide. Frets are 0.05" high and 0.10" wide. DC resistance on the neck pickup is 8.05 kOhms, and the bridge is 8.96kOhms.

No body or neck bindings which adds to the uniqueness of this guitar. People can not believe it is a Gibson Les Paul. It looks and plays like a PRS. Serial number is 92829430.

This guitar comes with the original brown molded Gibson USA case with the magenta inside.

Shipping weight is based on 25 pounds in case and box.
