Gibson Les Paul Standard Honey Burst 60′s Neck Ex-emp.

Gibson Les Paul Standard Honey Burst 60's Neck Ex-emp.

Info:   This is a very special Gibson Les Paul Standard that formerly belonged to a Gibson employee who was told that he could select any guitar in the shop when he retired, and he chose this one.  I have owned it for approximately a year, and fully intended to keep it for the rest of my life, but circumstances require me to sell it, so here it is listed on Ebay.  I believe it is a 2003 model based on the serial number.  It has the slim-profile 1960′s neck, and is totally stock with all original parts.  The pick guard is included in the case and has never been installed.  I paid just over $2000 for this guitar here on Ebay about a year ago.  The previous seller told me that he had taken it to a few experts who agreed that while it was not technically a custom shop instrument, it was clear that a lot of care had gone into the finishing of this guitar.  I am merely repeating exactly what he said.  I weighed it via very unscientific methods (me holding it on a bathroom scale), and believe it weighs approximately 8.5 lbs., but please don’t put too much faith in this.Just before listing it here for sale, I took it to the best luthier in town for a pro setup.  He replaced the nut while it was in the shop, as he said the previous nut had a couple of grooves that were filed too deeply in the original setup, so he replaced it with a new bone nut.  It’s a beautiful job and looks totally stock.  He also adjusted the intonation, etc., and it plays beautifully.  This work cost me just under $100 and was completed less than a month ago.This instrument has hardly been played and has virtually no wear and shows only the faintest signs of use.  The first owner (the ex-Gibson employee) didn’t play it at all, the second owner kept it under his bed most of the time, and I have played it maybe three hours total, and only in my house.  As far as I know it has never been gigged.  The frets are nearly new.  There are a couple of nearly invisible scratches here and there, but you have to look really hard in just the right light to find them and many people would never notice them at all, but I want to provide an honest description.  Absolutely no buckle marks, etc.  The only flaw worth mentioning specifically is a tiny red mark along the top edge.  It’s not a chip, as the finish is still intact, but it looks like a tiny reddish circle about 2mm in diameter.  See the last picture, and it’s near the lower-central portion of the photo.  It’s about the size of the end of a pen, and I took a closer picture with a pen … Click For More Info

First Run Gibson Les Paul Robot Guitar RG0751

First Run Gibson Les Paul Robot Guitar RG0751

Info:  This is a great guitar. I have only used it 4 or 5 times since I got it. It is a great guitar, both the sound and how it feels, and being able to tune it into any tuning with minimal effort is sweet. Its never been played at a show, or carried around, hasn’t left the house since I got it. I am sad to see it go, but right now playing isn’t my priority.Serial number: RG0751

From gibsons site: (http://www.gibson.com/robotguitar/index.html)

This is the First Edition of the Gibson’s Robot Guitar — AND it is the world’s first guitar with robotic technology. You don’t have to tune up your car ever time you drive it. Now you don’t have to tune up your guitar every time you play it the Robot Guitar does it for you. Just plug it in, dial in the tuning, strum the strings, and then play.

The self-tuning system is built into a gorgeous Gibson Les Paul (LP) guitar without changing its looks and while retaining all the sound and playability that have made the LP one of the most successful electric guitars of all time. To tune itself, the Robot Guitar uses an on-board central processing unit (CPU) that analyzes the pitch of each string as detected by a Tune-Control bridge. Tuning information from the CPU is relayed to the motorized tuning machines that efficiently adjust each string to the correct pitch with a distinctive whirring sound that lets you know Robot Guitar is on the job.

You activate the Robot Guitar with the Master Control Knob (MCK) that functions as a tone control in the down position and is pulled up to activate the tuning system. In addition to standard (A-440Hz) tuning, six commonly used tunings are selectable from the MCK. Users can also program their own custom tunings as well as set the guitar s intonation. Now, with the Gibson Robot Guitar, you’ll spend more time playing in tune. In live performance you can easily change tunings practically soundlessly on the fly keeping your show flowing smoothly. There’s no longer any need to haul several instruments to the gig to cover various tunings; The Robot does it all for you!

Each limited edition, first-run Gibson Robot Guitar features a dramatic Blue Silverburst nitrocellulose finish, created especially for this limited run. It will never be used on any other Gibson guitar. Also featured is a certificate of authenticity, a power adapter for the system’s rechargeable lithium battery, and a limited edition First-Run case with a silver Tolex exterior and a matching plush silver interior.

Each Robot Guitar’s serial number will also be sequentially exact, beginning with “RG0001,” and continuing through the end of this strictly limited run.(RG4000) This Robot Limited Edition First Run Electric Guitar has become a highly collectible instrument. Get yours now.Gibson Robot Electric Guitar Features: Robot Guitar self-tuning system:
Create and store custom tunings
Set intonation
Automatic winding and unwinding for string changes

Gibson Les Paul Standard-Very Nice Guitar!!

Gibson Les Paul Standard-Very Nice Guitar!!

Info:  Up for auction is my 2005 Gibson Les Paul Standard in heritage cherry, The guitar is in overall very good to excellent condition with only minor marks on the back from general playing and a few pick marks on front. It has no buckle rash. The fret condition is excellent. They show almost no sign of use. I would call them 95-98% to be conservative. The action is perfect. This is a 60′s style neck. It plays beautifully as you would expect. Holds tune and intonation.
This guitar has been played so it does show minor marks from use with some swirl marks from polishing. Included are a couple of very small dents on the back and one on the front. I tried to show them in the pictures but they don’t show up. Also the right corner of the headstock was bumped. No breaks or repairs. It weighs in at 9.1 lbs.
I bought the guitar new and have taken very good care of it. It’s been maintained in my air conditioned, smoke free house (has never left the house). This guitar has been played infrequently over the past 4 years and unfortunately I’m forced to sell it to cover tuition cost. 
Included is the original Gibson hard shell case with the original inspection tag and lock information. The lock has never been changed.
Please plan to pay within 3 days if paying by Paypal. Certified funds are accepted. Shipping will be $50 flat rate insured anywhere in continental US. No international shipping. Please don’t ask. If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks please check with me prior to bidding. No negative feedback buyers.
Feel free to contact me with any additional questions. Good luck, Mark … Click For More Info

2005 Gibson Les Paul Standard Faded,Honeyburst,Mint!!!!

2005 Gibson Les Paul Standard Faded,Honeyburst,Mint!!!!

Info:  Up for auction is a 2005 Gibson Les Paul Standard “Faded” in honeyburst finish.  The guitar is in mint condition with no scratches, worming or wear.  All original with the black shrouded Gibson reptile case.  Features include,  Burstbucker pickups, 60′s style neck profile, a beautiful honeyburst finish and has a solid mahogany body.  This Les Paul weighs in just over 9.5 pounds using the bathroom scale “method”.  Auction includes warranty and Gibson booklet along with a few other tags.  I am selling this guitar for a friend who bought it brand new at Guitar Center.  I helped him pick this axe out amongst quite a few.  I simply oiled the rosewood board and put on new strings when I took the photos.  This guitar was hardly handled, not to mention played by my comrade.  I carefully rehearsed with the guitar just to write this description.  She plays fantasically and the neck profile feels comfortable.  I play both 50′s and 60′s style and this is a beefier 60′s, kind of in between which is why we chose this guitar.  The Burstbuckers sound excellent.  Much better than the 498/500 humbuckers.  This guitar has singing definition and clarity with a warmth and sustain that frankly surprised me.   Very resonant accoustically.  Auction open to the lower 48 USA only.  Shipping and handling with insurance is $60.00.  No zero or less than 97% posive feedback without contacting me first.  Happy to answer any questions I could…Good Luck!!! … Click For More Info

2003 Gibson Les Paul Standard guitar w/OHSC 100%

2003 Gibson Les Paul Standard guitar w/OHSC 100%

Info:  Here is a 2003 Gibson Les Paul standard with the original hard shell case.  The guitar is in excellent+ condition and is 100% original.  The guitar is absolutely gorgeous.  I would call it near mint condition.  The guitars finish is very nice with no dings that I can see.  The action is low and the neck is dead straight.  The guitar plays and sounds great as you would expect..  Beautiful looking black finish with white pickguard..  Looks so sweet.  Everything on the guitar is original all the way down to the screws.  It had straplocks on it, but I put the originals back on after taking the pictures.  Sorry about the bad pics, it’s hard taking pictures of black guitars.  You get all kinds of reflections in the photos. I assure you that there are no dings or weird marks on the guitar at all.  If you see any, they are because of my bad photography skills.  This is a really great guitar with a medium sized neck.  Frets show almost no wear.  Case is in excellent+ condition also.  No tears to the tolex at all.  If you have been looking for a nice Les Paul, here it is for you.  Why buy a new one, when you can get this for quite a bit less and it looks practically new.  Shipping will be $60 in the USA. … Click For More Info
