1978 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe/Standard Conversion: This guitar started out life as a Les Paul Deluxe but it has been professionally routed out to fit full size humbuckers in place of the original humbuckers. It was done correctly so that a correct pickguard would fit. At some time a mini switch had been and the removed with the hole being professionally filled and color matched so it is hard to see. The pickups are a Burstbucker #1 and #2 so it sounds great!. The pots are modern Gibson with orange drop caps. Tuners are newer Gibson.  The frets show some wear with no effect on playability. The neck is approximately .792" at the first fret and .976" at the 12th fret. The guitar is pretty light for this era at 9lbs., 9oz. Freshly set up with 10 gauge strings. The Wine Red finish looks great! Take this one out and play it! Includes original truss rod cover. blank truss rod cover, original bridge and import ABR-1 style installed. The guitar ships in an aftermarket case.

Guitars can experience changes due to temperature and humidity differences during shipping that may require minor adjustments.  In addition, I can not predict how you would like your instrument set up.  If you can not make these adjustments yourself you should expect to incur the costs associated with having them done by a professional.

Please note that I sell predominantly pre-owned guitars. These are not personal instruments so, although they are inspected and tested, it is possible that I might miss a small nick or ding or, in the case of older guitar there may be just to many blems to photograph all of them. I will not be responsible for any shipping charges because you want to send the guitar back because you found a nick or ding that I did not describe or show in a photo.
