  • Description: CLICK FOR THE PICS......Leave it to me to dig up all the odd stuff.....here is an extremely rare original 1950's Gibson tailpiece, as we found it from the inventory of a closed 75 year old music shop in South Jersey. It is marked "Pat Pend" and also "Les Paul Model" but has larger stems than the traditional 1952 Goldtop version, (see pics). The strings wrap OVER the tail, not under as they would on a traditional 52 Les Paul. With "Les Paul Model" stamped on it, could this be from the prototype of a hollow-body Les Paul model that never went into production? Maybe one made specially for Les's personal use? Either way, it will work very well for a 1950's ES-295, and is a very interesting find. Call Axezactly at 609-561-8744. We love trades, and ship everywhere in the world....every day.
