Product information

This is a super clean example of the classic "Black Beauty" LP model with some great WW enhancements like custom spec Burst Buckers.

Here's what the folks at Wildwood say about the build:

The Wildwood Spec 1957 Les Paul Custom features a solid mahogany body for extra tonal heft and exceptional resonance. The ebony fingerboard is also attached with hot hide glue for improved energy transfer, so these guitars are quite loud and resonant when unplugged! Our Wildwood Spec Custom 'Buckers only improve this excellent natural tone by delivering sweet, vintage-perfect tone.

After paying so much attention to replicating the sound of the originals, we had to make sure they looked right, too! So, we equipped them with waffle-back tuners, gold hardware, and vintage-accurate plastics to complete the package."

The guitar shows some light signs of play and handling wear, although it's primarily masked by the aging. Small scuffs and nicks here and there. Frets are in great shape and playability is nicely dialed in due to a pro setup in our shop.

Priced with original reissue Lifton case, COA, and case candy, as well as a set of strap lock buttons and a gold toggle switch tip.
