This guitar was purchased new from our store on 12/8 and returned on 12/19. All of the pots have been replaced as the previous owner attempted some modifications that damaged the originals. High quality, individually measured CTS 500k pots were used to guarantee tight tolerance. The pots measure 510k, 511k, 514k, and 518k respectively. Gibson Custom Shop Reissue 0.022MFD Bumblebee capacitors were used and all the original wire was retained. The bridge pickup cover was removed at one point and we made sure it was reattached properly at no detriment to the pickup or its functionality. The guitar has a few small blemishes pictured below including a ding in the top and a few small dents in the neck and back.  These dents are the only cosmetic issues and the guitar is flawless otherwise.  Not returnable and contains Rosewood, so may not be shippable outside the USA.

All of the original documentation and certificates are included as well as the original Gibson Hardshell case. The guitar weighs 8.47lbs. Please feel free to contact us for any additional info. 

Gibson Custom is proud to stand up as the first guitar maker to pay tribute to an influential genre of music, while supporting an extremely worthy cause at the same time. The new Southern Rock Tribute 1959 Les Paul entirely captures the look, feel, and tone of the guitar that has been at the center of Southern Rock since its origination in the late 1960s, while proceeds from the sales of this extremely Limited Edition will go to benefit members of the music community in need through Music Health Alliance and The Gibson Foundation.

Capturing all the essentials of the legendary burst, and crafted with the utmost skill by the luthiers of Gibson Custom to a feature set derived through vintage experts and members of the Southern Rock community, the Southern Rock Tribute 1959 Les Paul stands out with its unique “Reverseburst” finish over a beautifully figured maple top, which results in a subtle heart-like pattern toward the center of the guitar. 

In every other way, the Southern Rock Tribute 1959 Les Paul stands out as a classic vintage burst. From its rounded ’59 neck profile, to its killer PAF-style Custom Bucker pickups, to its traditional plastics and hardware set, this is every ounce a stunning Les Paul, and one you’ll be proud to display, whether as part of a growing collection or out on the big stage.

Used and Vintage gear is, by definition, old and fragile. This gear is subject to age and handling wear.  Scuffs and scrapes, dents and dings, repairs, modifications and replacements all are to be expected.  So, while Guitar Showcase strives to accurately document and describe each piece we list, we can only accept responsibility for what we detail in the listing and what is visible in the photos.  Guitar Showcase is eager to verify any additional details necessary to address any concerns you may have: just make sure to contact us with any questions you may have before bidding or buying.  Beyond this, Guitar Showcase can offer no guarantee and can accept no returns on Used or Vintage gear. Please be sure you know what you are buying, and please do not think that older, used and Vintage Instruments should be set up in perfect playing condition.

For high priced Vintage instruments, we highly recommend that you either have a local friend try the Instrument or come in and try it in person.

CONSIGNED GEAR:

Some of the gear in the Guitar Showcase eBay store is listed on behalf of a consignor.  These pieces are not the property of Guitar Showcase and as such we can accept no returns on any consigned equipment.  Consigned gear is also subject to the same stipulations as Used and Vintage gear, as described above.  Please make sure to contact us with any questions you may have before bidding on or buying any consignment item.
