⭕ 1955 Gibson Les Paul Special solidbody electric guitar still sporting its original limed mahogany TV finish.1955 was the first year of production for this model.Ive owned a bunch of these guitars over the years,this one is unusually good sounding when plugged into an amp.The P-90 pickups are really strong output and fat sounding..snarly as hell!!This guitar has never been broken,repaired,or modified in any way.It is 100% original down to the frets and the chipboard alligator softshell case.Nice chunky neck shows a bit of wear on the back as you can clearly see in the pics, but the wear is not disruptive feeling to your hand when you play the guitar.It weighs exactly 7.8 pounds on my digital scale. The original frets are level and not pitted badly..of course there is not as much meat on the frets as youd find on a brand new guitar, but it does play well like it sits..it HAS been set up by a pro tech recently..neck is straight and intonation is dead on with .010 gauge strings.This guitar needs nothing..take it outta the box and right to the gig.
