Gibson Les Paul 1959 Gloss Dark Burst '11

SOLD

Spectacular R9 in Darkburst finish, one of our favorites. Very lightweight (8lbs 4.8oz) and with huge sustain & resonance. A real treat to play and look at.

The neck profile is very comfortable, the earliest (thickest) 59, with a very dark rosewood fretboard. The finish is Gloss (which was a 300$ upcharge over VOS back in 2011).

It is in exceptional condition (mint), with barely any signs of use/wear at all). Frets show no wear.

Completely stock (it did have other pickups at one time, but Burstbuckers 1 & 2 are back on). Includes OHSC, COA, checklist and case candy.

A true lightweight Les Paul with heavyweight tone and looks!
