2003 Gibson LEFTY Brazilian R9 Les Paul (1959 Reissue) Cherry Sunburst, Excellent, Original Hard, $7,295.00
This is a Left Handed 2003 Gibson Historic 1959/R9 Les Paul with the rare and desirable Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard. Very nice top in Washed cherry, nickle hardware.
It has some moderate fret wear with a few nicks on the back of the neck, but otherwise this guitar is in really clean condition.
Includes a group of upgraded hardware and plastic, with all original parts in the case(see pic), as well as the COA and clean OHSC.
Has a great neck with some meat on it: 1st fret/.94, 12th fret/1.02
Neck pickups are very punchy and lively: neck PUP/8.23K, bridge PUP/8.65K
The guitar weighs just around 9.5 lbs
I just set this guitar up with D’Addario 10-46s and it plays and sounds fantastic!
The Brazilian Rosewood Les Pauls from 2003 are among the most collectable guitars of the modern era. The left handed Brazilians are hard to find; this is a nice one!
This guitar has serial number 9 3299, which is well within the range for 2003 Brazilian R9s: http://forum.gibson.com/index.php?/topic/269-brazilian-rosewood-quantities-2001-2003/
