Gibson / Les Paul Standard R8 Historic / 2002 / Butterscotch Flame / Guitar For Sale
|
2002 Gibson Les Paul Standard Historic 1958 Reissue R8 with COA in what Gibson called Butterscotch, some call it Lemon burst now. Retail at the time was $6,200. This is part of the Gibson Art, Custom & Historic Collection 1958 Reissue R8 Les Paul with a highly figured vintage Double A top. The previous owner upgraded to OX4 pickups, Hoveland caps, and Featherweight Tailpiece. Pups at the time would have been 57' classics or BB's 1 & 2 since this was right at the transition point. These OX4's really seem to be closer to PAF's to my ears as I have serval 50s LP's with PAFs. Some fret wear but plenty of life left in frets. Nice straight grain rosewood fingerboard. Great playing, sounding guitar. Comes with original case, COA. 8 lbs. 13 oz. No Trades shipped to lower 48 on my insurance so your shipping is very low cost. Pay Pal Friends & Family, Bank check or wire transfer.
