2001 Gibson Yamano Les Paul Standard Plus Heritage Cherry Sunburst w/OHSC & Paperwork, All Original, Good Wood Era 

Available now is a hard to source, 2001 Gibson Yamano Order Les Paul Standard Plus in a luscious Heritage Cherry Sunburst, complete with its original paperwork, un-attached pickguard and brown Gator hardcase with pink interior.

These "Plus" models are elusive from this era, as most Les Paul Standards sport plain tops. What sets this apart is its subtle yet tasteful solid flame maple cap, adding a touch of elegance to its aesthetic. Although this LP underwent a headstock repair at some point, resulting in the addition of a volute, it was executed flawlessly—one of the cleanest repairs we've seen. While this repair is noted, it's reflected in the modest asking price. Otherwise, this Les Paul stands as one of the finest specimens from its era that we've encountered.

With its 60's profile neck and single-piece mahogany body seamlessly paired with a stunning flame maple cap, these Les Paul Standards from that era embody all the hallmark traits of their vintage counterparts. They offer the closest experience to owning a Custom Shop equivalent without the hefty investment.

Hailing from Gibson's esteemed "Good Wood Era," these guitars boast exceptional quality control and precise fit and finish. A direct comparison to a modern Gibson USA Les Paul Standard reveals the stark contrast in craftsmanship, highlighting the superior standards of yesteryears.

Overall, this guitar is in fantastic condition, showcasing trademark play-wear consistent with a well-cared-for instrument. Cosmetically, there are several light surface marks, belt "worming" on the rear, and stand marks on the bottom of the body. However, there's nothing severe or affecting the wood. The neck and fretboard feel and look clean, with minimal wear on all 22 frets, ensuring silky smooth playability. The original chrome hardware is mostly clean, with only slight tarnishing, and all stock electronics function seamlessly. Equipped with two Gibson 490R and 498T pickups, both deliver the trademark Les Paul tones, characterised by harmonic highs and endless sustain. This one weighs in at 9.47lbs 

It’s been expertly cleaned and setup by Ben of Beej Guitar Repairs with a fresh set of 10-46 strings
