Pleased to offer this original early 1955 Gibson Les Paul Custom. Gibson only made 355 of these in 1955 and this is one of those great guitars. First of the Les Paul Customs, when came with speed (Barrel) knobs. 

The Alnico “staple” pickup in the neck along with the P-90 in the bridge make it a brilliant yet rich tone. All original but has been refretted for playability. Some but not much wear on the original gold tailpiece. 

These first of the Les Paul Customs are an experience to play and were a major milestone in the Les Paul guitars. This one plays and sounds great and has appreciated every year Ice had it. For details, video or other questions, Contact Rick at 407-801-1925 

Pleased to offer this very early original 1953 Gibson Les Paul. Released in 1952 the Les Paul guitar by Gibson, the Les Paul revolutionized the electric guitar and by the time they received serial numbers in 1953, the Les Paul was hitting its stride. 

This Goldtop “standard” is all original except pots have been replaced but wired for 1950s (treble bleed) and it has had an ancient stable headstock repair that was done well.

Original trapeze tailpiece, pickguard, P-90 pickups, tuners and finish. The neck feels fantastic (measurements in the photos) and still has original frets on most of the neck, with a few replaced or just flattened out from play on lower frets.

The vintage mahogany body is lightweight by modern standards (see pic). A few nicks but overall in very good condition and nice age checking on the original gold top. 

This is an excellent example of an early 1950s Gibson Les Paul and a pure electric Time Machine. Comes with modern Les Paul case. 

Pleased to offer this 1956 Gibson Les Paul Custom for sale. This guitar is in the original 1,094 Gibson made and shipped from 1954-1956. Just a fantastic playing guitar and looks incredible. 

All original except neck pickup cover, regret and blacklight shows some finish around the bridge area and a stinger over with a small crack repair. All paint matches so it could have been a factory repair. Not visible without a blacklight and very small. Puts this excellent 1950s Les Paul at a discount on an otherwise excellent piece. 

Plays and sounds amazing, includes original case.

Now here is a cool players grade vintage guitar we are proud to offer: a 1954 Gibson Les Paul that has that magical thing that sets these 1950s Les Pauls apart.

Brought to us by the son of the original owner, it was purchased from Sam Ash Music on 48th Street in New York City. In 1970, the neck was broken beyond repair and Sam Ash sent it to Gibson for a factory re-neck.

Gibson put on it what looks to be a 1968 serial number but the logo inlay and 3 piece neck say 1969 to me, which would be about right for a 1970 repair. It is an excellent playing neck, wide with heft but not too much. Also looks like a refret so the frets are in great playing shape. 

The electronics are original except the switch and these P-90s sound just amazing. Warmth with strength and just such a full sound. 

The body is original and the finish has that perfect amount of natural checking and that slight peel of green undercoat starting to come through. The mojo of the top and the sound of the original pickups are why this guitar has it. 

In 1990, the original owner took it to Elderly Music in Michigan and had them install a compensating Bad Ass Bridge. Every real player knows this is vast improvement in intonation and given the re-neck, I agree with his decision to just keep it a great player…and keep playing! New strap buttons but originals included. 

At roughly half the price of an all original 1954 Les Paul, this 1954 not only plays great but it is also a bargain. With the original Lifton case, if you’ve been wanting a quality and mostly original ‘54 Goldtop at a great price, this is it. 

For a discounted price ($2,000) you can include a 1954 Gibson GA-20 just serviced with caps, new speaker and grill cloth. A perfect match of two iconic 1954 Gibsons.

Pleased to offer this near mint 1963 Gibson Byrdland for sale. This is a one owner guitar, bought new in 1963 and never gigged and only played at home for family (fast tempo Italian standards I’m told). This guitar was well taken care of but due to this passing of the owner in 1977, it has been in the closet since then.

Only 102 Sunburst Byrdlands were shipped by Gibson in 1963. This guitar is all original, Patent number (PAF), pots, just a pickguard replacement when it got gaseous as they do (original included).

The premier electric arch top guitar with Florentine single cut, beautiful sunburst and gold hardware.

A magnificent example of an early ‘60s Byrdland. Includes OHSC.

Pleased to offer this 1962 Gibson Les Paul (SG). This wonderful player’s grade ‘62 LPSG has had some knocks but some recent refreshing has yielded a ‘62 Les with new life and a great player. 

Just refretted and with a new Gibson aged  “vintage” sideway vibrola tailpiece, this old Gibson is feeling good on the fretboard but now with improved intonation with the updated tailpiece. 

The electronics (pots, wiring, switch, jack) are original. A modern ‘57 Classic bridge pickup but in the neck is the original Patent number sticker PAF. 

The neck thin taper with a wide nut but has had a headstock repair. It also appears to have a very thin heel repair and there is overspray over both areas. These appear to be very old and stable repairs. 

Priced as a quality player’s grade 1962 Les Paul that has an amazing sound and feel…and it looks pretty cool too. Included original yellow lined case.

Here’s a clean and super cool original Gibson Melody Maker single pickup from 1965. Someone babied this beautiful example with that double cutaway with the wider body.

It’s got that perfect look and feel of a great Gibson from the greatest era and sounds excellent. It even includes its original alligator chipboard case.

You won’t find one cleaner so pickup this fun one for something a little different.

Pleased to offer this one owner 1973 Gibson Les Paul in classic Ebony, the original color of the first Les Paul Customs.

This black beauty has the typical “upgrades” of the day; changed tuners, removed T-Top covers, chrome bridge/tailpiece, and the two micro-switches; one is a coil split switch, the other is an out-of-phase (Peter Green effect) pickup switch. Both fully functional. Great slim taper refretted neck, pots date to 48th week of 1973. 

Nothing beats an early ‘70s Les Paul Custom and with the switches, this one has expanded tonal possibilities. Includes OHSC.

Here’s one that’s been a trusted friend to a veteran rocker, a sweet cherry sunburst 1979 Gibson Les Paul Custom. With some of the last T-top Pat number stamped humbuckers dated September 7 and 11, 1978, this guitar is a rock machine. 

Besides the switch tip and a refret it is all original and the pots date to late Summer 1978. Nothing beats a solid great sounding Les Paul and this has more than proven her worth over the years. Now it’s someone else’s turn…birth year guitar perhaps? 

Nut width, neck depth, weight are in the photos, Ebony fretboard is in just amazing condition. Just the right amount of wear on the factory gold hardware. Very comfortable neck. 

Don’t sleep on this gem, includes HSC.
