I recently was offered 2 late 70’s LP Customs
Both white
One was an absolute dog - Played and felt crap - Huge Ledge between binding and wood that just felt nasty- But still had a stiff price tag
The other was clean but barely acceptable with regards to how it played
I'd feel guilty selling this to someone and imagining their smile when they saw it and then their eventual disappointment when they played it.
Expect to pay anything from £2.7k-£3.5k depending on year and condition.

Edit: when I say issues, it's minor, can get through a number of songs before it's a problem usually.

Addressed here.
Also the String Butler was created for this issue.

To be honest, I think that a big issue for me because I generally use a lot of gain and use very transparent amps (Friedman, Carol Ann). If you play cleaner you may not notice it a lot. I know lots of people think it's a simple set up issue, file the nut a certain way but I still have the issue on them. I am quite sensitive to tuning issues so it is a bit of a curse.
I went to my mates house the other day who loves Gibson and I explained the issue I have with them, that I love the way they look, the way they sound, the people who played them but the tuning issues are just too noticeable for me. He said, I don't have that issue, he tuned his 90's Standard, played it and I was like mate that's out of tune, he said yea but only by a bit.
TBF, I can pull a Fender out of tune as well, they aren't immune to it either. I notice also a lot of pro bands with 3 a side headstocks guitars will change guitars quite a bit during a gig.

There’s only two proper colours for a Les Paul Custom, as any fule kno, and that’s black or white!
Any fender I've had (currently have MIM strat and tele) has never had the issue.
I've had a new nut and tried different ways of wrapping the strings round the tuner. When the old nut came out it was glued in very heavily and took a load of paint off the side of the neck with it, so when it continued to go out of tune with the new nut I wasn't thrilled.
