What's Hot
tomajohatomajoha Frets: 897
edited October 2018 in Guitars £
Putting feelers out about selling this one as it's not getting the use it deserves.

1993 Gibson prehistoric rare as hens teeth.

Full mahogany construction, I believe its about 9lb3oz but my scales weigh heavy so I'll check on some proper postage scales.

It really sings and has a wonderful tone I've never heard in any other LP I've owned

Bridge p90 upgraded to Lollar 50's low wind but original is included, pots and caps upgraded too.

Everything else is stock. Lots of little scratches and knocks but nothing out of the ordinary for a 25 year old guitar. Original frets although some of the original nibs have cracked off with age.

Original Case

£2900 may consider interesting trades (R7, R4, ES's, Fender CS)

    From the pictures it would appear that they're regular medium-jumbo frets.

  • I can vouch for this being an outstanding guitar. The  neck pickup and fretwork are stellar!
