Absolutely awesome rock and roll machine here from the early 1970s. This Les Paul Custom was dated using Guitar Dating Project, serial indicates 1971-1973. Does not include bag or case. Original T-Top in the neck, unoriginal knobs, vintage DiMarzio Pickup in the Bridge. The in between position is out of phase and it sweetly gives you those classic Peter Green tones that howl and sing into the ether
Original metal saddles have been replaced with classic nylon saddles for better tuning stability.Ā
The original ABR-1 bridge posts moved slightly forward for better intonation.Ā It is setup well and intonates perfectly.Ā Ā
