Step into rock history with this stunning 1978 Gibson Les Paul Custom in a rare, vibrant Wine Red finish. Crafted during the famous Norlin era in the USA, this legendary "Tuxedo" model has been professionally hot-rodded for maximum tonal versatility, heavy sustain, and fast playability.
High-Performance Upgrades:
- DiMarzio Humbuckers: Swapped for premium DiMarzio pickups to deliver massive output, rich harmonics, and an aggressive rock voice.
- Custom Coil-Tap Switches: Upgraded with dedicated mini-switches to coil-tap each pickup independently, letting you drop from thick humbucker crunch to bright, glassy single-coil tones instantly.
- Fine-Tuner Bridge: Upgraded with a high-stability, micro-adjusting fine-tuner bridge for flawless pitch control and micro-tuning adjustments on the fly.
Condition & Authenticity:
This vintage instrument is in excellent functional condition, showcasing honest player wear that adds true relic character. Modified specifically to meet the needs of serious players, all upgraded hardware, switches, and electronics have been fully bench-tested. Includes a period-correct hardshell case (not original).
