Gibson Les Paul Studio

            Up for auction is my 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Faded in Worn Brown. This is the model that has the higher end stock pickups, which are Burstbuckers, and this also comes with the original Gibson USA hard shell case, black on the outside, white plush on the inside.

            Both this Les Paul and case are in excellent condition. This Les Paul is totally stock with one tiny exception: I replaced the black volume and tone speed knobs with Gibson black reflector top knobs. I just think they look better, but the original stock speed knobs will of course be included.

            This Les Paul is light and extremely resonant, and is great fun to play as this is one of those rare guitars where the notes just seem to jump off the fretboard. Through a cranked small tweed amp, this guitar absolutely nails Clapton’s Wheels of Fire tone. The frets are as new, the fretboard is dark, and there are no issues whatsoever with this guitar. The only sign of wear is some scratching on the pickguard. This Les Paul absolutely blows away any Epiphone Les Paul I’ve ever come across. It honestly even sounds better than the Japanese Tokai Love Rock I have, which I’m keeping only because, unlike Gibsons, I won’t get back close to the money I put into it.

            Now for the business end of things. This is a Paypal only auction. Paypal only! Sorry, no international bidders! Shipping overseas is just more of a risk than I want to take. Bidders from the continental U.S. only! I will only ship to a confirmed Paypal address in the continental U.S. I will also not conduct a sale with zero feedback or negative feedback bidders. Sorry, no exceptions, so if that is your status, please look elsewhere. Also, all sales are final. No refunds, no returns.

I will, however, treat you exactly the way I would hope to be treated by an Ebay seller. This means I will describe the item as accurately as I possibly can. If you have a question about the item – and by all means ask if you do – I will give you a prompt response. Please ask questions before bidding, so that there are no misunderstandings. The item will be in perfect working order when I bring it for shipping, and it will be insured for shipping. Barring a personal crisis, I will ship the item within 24 hours of your payment clearing Paypal on my end, because I know how hard it is waiting for something you just bought to arrive. In many instances, I actually shipped items on the same day payment was made and cleared. I will email a tracking number to you. Once the item arrives to you safely, please be kind and leave me positive feedback as soon as you are able. I will then promptly leave you positive feedback, too. And since as a buyer I always pay immediately, I require you to please do the same if you are the winning bidder.

Thanks very much for looking.
