This is the Orville by Gibson Les Paul Custom "LPC-57B". Based on the serial number, it is a high-end model manufactured by FujiGen in 1993.

The body and neck are made of all mahogany, equipped with '57 Classic pickups, and features an ebony fretboard—a true Black Beauty.

Judging from the specs, there’s a possibility that this could be an even rarer “LPC-57BB”, although we cannot confirm that definitively.

Weight: Approximately 4.9kg.

Condition:
As this guitar is 32 years old, it shows signs of use and wear consistent with its age. There are surface-level finish cracks, areas where the finish is lifting, and some hardware deterioration. However, it has been thoroughly cleaned and lightly set up, and there are no functional issues at present. The toggle switch tip has been replaced with a gold metal one, but the rest of the parts appear to be original.

The included accessory is a non-original gig bag.

Please note that this is a used item.
There are no issues with its current functionality, but please understand that you may need to make further adjustments after purchase to suit your preferences.
Be sure to review the photos and description carefully before placing a bid.
