2016 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul R8 in Iced Tea Burst just into the shop!
This a great playing example of the classic R8 that features a full C neck profile and a set of Gibson Custombuckers. It was on the road with a professional touring musician for the last few years, and shows some nice natural wear throughout. There are various nicks, dings, and scratches along with some pick wear below the strings, but it's in keeping with the overall vibe of a VOS guitar. The frets are in excellent shape and the setup is spot on. At just below 8 3/4 lb on our scale, it's a very comfortable weight for an LP.
This one had aftermarket pickups installed at one point, but the original Custombuckers are back in it. It's also missing its original pickguard, but we didn't have the urge to procure a replacement when the top finish and figure of the maple looked as good as it does!
Includes original Lifton style HSC, COA, and tags. The original case shows some wear throughout, including a small strip of the leatherette covering having been stripped on the top lid.
