SOLD - Gibson Les Paul Standard 2004, flame maple top, root beer, VGC £1490
![](src)
£1,490 - collection in London. I'd be interested in a partial trade for a mint Fender american bass, deluxe or elite. Sorry no guitar trades.
I have been asked a few times if I would courier the Gibson, but I do not want to risk any damage. I can meet anywhere in London or just outside at train stations.
Gibson Les Paul Standard built in 2004, Nashville, USA. Flame maple top with a root beer finish, rosewood fretboard, mahogany body and neck. I believe the root beers were only made for this model for 1 year. Weight - 9.1lbs - 4.1kgs. The guitar is completely unaltered and comes with the original Gibson hard case.
I have owned it from new and it's never been gigged, studio work only so it's in very good condition for an 18 year old. There are a few minor scuffs/bumps on the back and at the bottom of the body from where it has been in stands but the top and neck/fretboard still look almost mint. There is some slight dulling in finish on the bridge and pickup covers. I have tried to show the marks in the photos.
