FS: Gibson Les Paul Custom 1993 Black Beauty

adriangonciarz

You know it, it's a classic. When you think of Les Paul - you see a Black Beauty.

You take the guitar in hand and you instantly feel the massive, raw energy of a true LP. You see it's been played but well taken care of. It spent its life in the studio and on the tour and was always there, ready to rock. We exactly know its history, it comes from the northern lands of Sweden where it was used by a renowned musician in the heavy metal scene. We promised the seller we'll find a good owner for it and we'll keep our promise. Is that you?

Who’s the Swedish metal guitarist?

Very nice, however I do not believe it is Custom
Shop as suggested. The non-reissue version of the Custom was a Gibson USA model until around 2004 when it moved to CS.

Never said it was a CS model. I only said 1993 is an interesting year for Gibson;)

Actually it wasn’t a guitarist in the first place. Daniel Liljekvist, former drummer of Katatonia, who is a multiinstrumentalist as far as i can tell.

Saying “1993 is the first year of Gibson Custom Shop” in the ad is suggestive that it is a CS model. I did notice that you did not say it is, but it appears that you may be prepared to let someone misinterpret that it is a CS model. Not cool.

Yeah what the hell

Come now you clearly implied it was a Custom shop model otherwise no need to mention it at all....

I edited the description so everyone feels safe and the buyer makes a conscious decision. 
A slight note here tho: Buying this expensive guitar it's very unlikely that someone will do it motivated purely by my description. A person interested will know what we're talking about. Are you going to also correct every post stating that "long-tenon" is a must-have or chambering is a bad thing and will kill your sustain?

Thanks. What is the weight and please show more pictures of the damage to the neck.

Sure thing! The weight is approx 4.2 kilos. Please find more photos in the Dropbox link. The neck was not damaged in any way, it's all natural wear.

The photos and your description is exactly  why someone would buy it. Its literally your advert.

I am no one to judge people's motivation, but I trust people really go a bit beyond the pure description when buying things. And from what I experienced, especially the Gibson community is a picky one. Anyway - I hope there's no more shady stuff in my ad so one can focus on actual guitar.

I take it the guitar is in Poland? So import duty on the price too?

No fee shipment is on me, for that you don't have to worry, you can just take a look at my Feedback Thread.
I work in IT guys I just gather all my guitars under a brand but here I am a private person.
