Gibson Les Paul Custom '57 Reissue Custom Art & Historic LPB7 Black Beauty 2002

No sales tax for customers outside California.

This Gibson Les Paul Custom '57 Reissue "Black Beauty" is of the Custom, Art & Historic ilk, heralding from the "Good Wood" era (1996-the early 200s), when Les Paul Customs still were adorned with real ebony fretboard versus the later models that received "richlite" (simulated wood) fretboards.

The guitar is fundamentally mint, showing light signs of handling that are fewer than many new guitars you'll see hanging in stores.

The frets look new.  The neck is perfect.  There are no changes, repairs or issues.

The original case is included with some paperwork.
