  • Description: It’s a classic 1987 Gibson Les Paul Custom, serial # 819775XX in Black. This is a two pickup model with all chrome hardware. The chrome hardware was available for only two years. Everything about this guitar belies its 23 years of age. The finish is in beautiful condition. There are a few very minor dents and some minor buckle wear (couldn’t call it rash…nothing through the finish) on the back. The frets are all original and have plenty of meat left and the ebony fret board is in perfect shape. It has its original Grover (brand) tuners which work as intended and the neck, which has no volute, is straight and fast. The truss rod also works as intended. As mentioned, this guitar has two humbucking pickups. They read 7.56 k ohms for the bridge pickup and 7.76 k ohms for the neck pickup, both measured at the output jack. All of the potentiometers are date coded at the 28th week of 1987 and the solder is untouched. This black beauty weighs in at 9 lbs 14 oz and will ship with its original black protector case. It will be professionally packed with care.
