1981 Gibson Les Paul Custom Silver Burst Guitar
I hate to sell this rare 1981 Gibson Les Paul Custom Silver Burst, but I must need the cash right now. This is a hard to find guitar and it is in great condition. There is some nominal minor wear on the back of the neck from normal playing, but overall this guitar is a gem and plays like it too. This guitar has been meticulously stored and taken care of and has been in a smoke free controlled climate environment.
Note: Serious buyers only and the price I have it listed, is a firm price. These guitars only go up in value and this guitar is 29 years old and an excellent investment.
THE SERIAL NUMBER # is: 81261685
{Serial number above basically means this YDDDYPPP when reading the serial, so this particular guitar is a 1981 Silver burst, built December 6, 1981 at the Nashville Production facility because Nashville uses the designations 300-999.}
YDDDYPPP
YY is the production year
DDD is the day of the year or the month/day
PPP is the plant designation and/or instrument rank.
NOTE: I called Gibson to verify the specifications and made changes below to the pick up section of the specs. This guitar has the orginal or classic Humbucker pick ups for both neck and bridge.
Also, it's a one-piece mahogany neck with carved maple top and not alder like some others suggested.
