+++Limited Edition

Gibson’s 2007 ‘Guitar of the Week’ series featured a slew of brilliant variations on some of the company’s most revered models – each presented in exclusive Limited Edition runs of only 400 instruments. Week 33 was the Les Paul Classic Antique Mahogany, and it was as if they waited this far into the series to really pull out all the stops! This is the number #102 in the production line.

Premium A-grade Mahogany body

From the premium A-grade Mahogany body to the old-style ‘Americana’ Gibson headstock logo in scintillating Abalone, the Classic Antique Mahogany is a cool machine from tip to toe. The body and the Mahogany neck feature an antiqued binding; the carved top is satin finished in Antique Vintage Sunburst lacquer, (think dark, antique Tobaccoburst).

12" radius

The neck is the slim taper, sixties profile, and the lovely, chocolatey Rosewood board has a nice, player-friendly 12” radius. The inlays are vintage/antique toned, rounding out the aged appearance of this uber cool axe.

'57 Classic humbuckers

At the business end, the guitar is powered by a set of ’57 Classic humbuckers, (a ’57 Classic at the neck and a ’57 Classic Plus at the bridge), and the second you plug in you’re aware of the hot ceramic bite and snarl. The ’57 Classics feature Alnico II magnets, nickel pole-pieces, vintage enamel wire, Maple spacers, twin conductor braided leads and are wax potted to avoid unwanted feedback. Already a very resonant guitar – around 15 seconds of acoustic sustain – the ’57 Classics work in perfect synchronicity with the Mahogany body and neck to absolutely nail ‘vintage tone’, with a hint of modern humbucker edginess when it’s needed.

Condition

In overall Mint/Good as New condition. I personally bought this guitar from a guitar collector who never played this instrument. As a guitar who is closing in on turning 17 y/o, having this little and wear and usage is a rare sight. I bought it in the summer, but i struggle to get used to the "close" frets, as i`m used to Fender guitars who have a wider spacing. Therefore i am looking to sell this one.

Shipping in its original Gibson hard shell case, the Les Paul Classic Antique Mahogany is all set to become your immediate go-to guitar.
