The Gibson Custom Shop 1978 Les Paul Custom Ebony is a remarkable vintage guitar. It has all the style and class you would expect from a Les Paul Custom paired with the classic 'T-Top' humbucker pickups - considered by many to be the best pickups Gibson ever made.

Condition Report

At guitarguitar, we award our used gear a grade from 1-5 according to its overall condition, with 5 being the best.

This item was appraised as follows: 

Body: 3 out of 5 - Instrument has been used and shows evidence of its life in the forms of checking, chips and other superficial wear and tear. Metal parts and hardware may be mildly tarnished or stained and cosmetically imperfect.

Neck: 3 out of 5 - The frets have mild wear and/or pitting and may require profiling or replacement in future if the guitar is played extensively, although this work is not required immediately and the guitar plays and frets cleanly at present.

Additional Information: This guitar is in great condition for its age. There is some buckle rash on the back of the body and the pickguard and pickup covers have been removed. The guitar was purchased in Germany and has only had one owner since new.

This guitar has been restrung with D'Addario strings.

Accessories Included with this item are as follows: Original hard case, strap and strap locks which came fitted on the guitar.

This item has been modified as follows: The bridge has been replaced due to tarnishing, but the orignal has been kept in the case. The pickup surround on the neck pickup has been replaced. The nut was replaced and frets recently leveled.

We take care to photograph any features, wear, tear, or modifications you might want to see before you make the decision to buy.

All of our pre-owned instruments are covered by our 12-month warranty and have been inspected, play-tested, and set up before resale.
