This Custom Shop Gibson Les Paul Elegant dates to 1997 and delivers some premium appointments and tonewoods. Featuring a lovely flamed maple top over a chambered mahogany body, what Gibson referred to as the "Dynamic Sound Chamber," which both adds to the resonance of the guitar as well as lowering the weight. Weighing in at only 8 lbs 2 oz, this Les Paul is articulate and delivers some classic humbucking tones thanks to the Gibson PAF spec pickups.

Here in excellent condition, there is minimal fretwear and minimal signs of playwear with the thin finish beautifully sinking into the grain of the wood. There is some tarnish to the pickup covers and hardware (see photos). Includes the original Gibson hardshell case along with a clear pickguard and mounting hardware in the case. There guitar has not been drilled for the pickguard hardware.
