PLEASE NOTE: I'M AWAY FOR A FEW DAYS. WILL BE SHIPPING AGAIN TUESDAY 9/22. THANKS!

Note: See short video in gallery showing how I pack a guitar. I set myself apart with my SETUPS and PACKING. I include setup sheet with each guitar.

Up for sale is this 2013 Gibson Les Paul 70s Tribute in black finish. This was the rare model that came with the renown "Dirty Fingers" ceramic humbuckers, known as one of the hottest Gibson pickups ever made. Comes with original Gibson bag and papers. Weight = 8lbs, 6oz.

Features
— Mahogany body and neck
— Rosewood fretboard w/ trapezoid inlays
— 70s Dirty Fingers humbuckers
— "Witch Hat" control knobs/Grover "kidney bean" tuners

Condition
The guitar is in good condition with some playing marks (see pics). Frets are in good condition. Overall looks good, not abused, and no issues.

Sound/Playability
For that true 70s hi-gain sound, this Les Paul with Dirty Fingers pickups fills the bill. The all black look is mean and cool. The sounds it makes are big and thunderous. Stripped down non-gloss, matte finish won't impede your tone. It's simply a rock machine. Plays great all over the neck. All electronics in good shape. Cherry on top is my detailed setup and bulletproof packing. Thanks!

Recent Review:
"Guitar was packed perfectly for shipping. Everything arrived exactly as described. A lot of care and attention was put into the setup (intonation is perfect). Seller was nice enough to include some extras. Excellent seller! Thank you so much!"

International
Please note, on Reverb, I ship to USA and Canada only. On eBay I ship worldwide with eBay International, which has the best pricing. cheers

Guitar Setup
Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!

Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 15 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.

Manufacturer Info
Dirty Fingers
Ultra-high output, searing high-gain clarity, and a mean, mean attitude: the Gibson Accessories Dirty Fingers hot ceramic humbucker is not a pickup for the faint of heart! This pickup is a tribute to one of Gibson’s rawest and most powerful models of its ’70s lineup and is designed to excel in any high-gain application with maximum note-to-note articulation. It’s a pickup that’s found a home in many a rock, punk, and metal musician’s guitar — famously featured in the bridge position of Tom DeLonge’s Signature Gibson ES-333. And Gibson Accessories’ latest iteration of this classic design is nastier than ever before. Whether you’re playing old-school metal or modern pop-punk tunes, guitarists have found that the Dirty Fingers is the perfect bridge-position upgrade to give an overly polite-sounding guitar an aggressive edge.
