Beautiful cherry Les Paul 1958 historic reissue. This is an extremely clean guitar with very little evidence of wear. Frets are perfect. Weighs less approx 8.75 lbs. Comes with original case, certificate of authenticity, black switch plate, keys/truss adjustor and even a business card for the shop where it was originally purchased. When I bough it about a year ago, the bridge pickup was very weak, about 6.5 ohms. I had it rewound by Tom Brandley (http://tombrantleyrewinds.com/) one of the very best in the business. It now measures a healthy PAF 8.4 ohms and sounds tremendous.

I originally thought this was a 2009, but was informed that the brown case, narrow/taller frets and custom switchplate indicate that it's a 2019. Certainly, the lack of wear would also point to it being a newer guitar.

$3500. No trades, please. Will ship and insure at buyer's cost.
