2005 Gibson Custom Shop R6 56 Reissue Gold Top, Very Good, Hard
13 Year old Gibson Custom Shop R6 that shows less than average wear for it age. The integrity of this instrument is 100% spot on!
Cosmetics
The back has minor worming, but not through the finish
The top has a few dings and checking lines between the pickups. If I didn't point them out they would most likely not be noticed.
Electronics
The pots have been upgraded to CTS Pots professionaly
The Caps have also been upgraded to foil wrapped oil caps.
Frets
The fret wire has tons of life. The instrument plays up and down the neck free of dead spots with low action.
