1961 Gibson Les Paul Jr Vintage Electric Guitar, OHSC
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:525922 | Product Line: Gibson Les Paul |
Model: Les Paul Standard | Brand: Gibson |
Size: Standard |
No reset, no cracks, no breaks, no repairs, no overspray and none needed. The finish is unfaded, still very deep red, beautiful and original (has not been buffed ever). There is very little checking at all.
Great P90 tone, less than 6 pounds, with the perfect neck (n...ot too thick and not thin like they become later years). This guitar plays excellent, with low easy action and a great neck angle (with plenty of distance at the pickup) and room to raise/lower the bridge. The bridge/tailpiece is original, as is the rest of all hardware, electronics, pots, wires nobs etc...100%.
Very little playwear, no fretwear and no buclklerash.
There are various dings, some chipping to the tip of the headstock (all pictured). There is an area (on the lower back) where it lay in the case against a cord, which caused a chemical reaction to the finish (pictured). One of the pots is more difficult to turn and has stripped the nob a bit but the pot functions.
The case has had some paint splattered on it, otherwise it's really nice and functions 100%. The guitar screams and plays as well as any SG. I had a bunch of these 1961 SG's over the years and this is the last to go.
This guitar is excellent + condition (conservatively) and a bargain at this price, which includes the original 1961 Les Paul Standard case.
You will not find one this good, at this price! Guaranteed as described.
This item is available for demo, near Chicago. This guitar can be picked up or shipped. If shipped this guitar will be professionally packed (no charge to buyer) and shipped promptly upon receipt of payment.
Shipping charges, including all duties and customs charges are the responsibility of the buyer. Buyer to pay actual shipping charges, no more, no less.
Thanks

Yes this is an auction, opening bid can take the guitar.
No, I cannot ship overseas. If you have someone here to buy it on your behalf, then it's up to you.
