Hello. I’ve been recently looking at a 1980 Gibson Sonex 180 Custom going for $1200 and I’ve been doing some research into them. I really couldn’t find much on the custom but I found a lot on the deluxe. One thing I noticed is that deluxes are cheap, and customs are a bit more pricey. What is the difference between these two guitars, and why are they so differently priced?

Which color finish is the custom ? On Wikipedia website it says that the solid silver color is the rarest , with less than 100 being done in that color .
