Highly collectible Anniversary Les Paul that was built to commemorate 25 years of the Les Paul, and also 50 years of Les Paul himself being in the music business.

It’s in excellent condition with just the normal wear/surface blemishes you’d expect from a 46 year old vintage guitar. There’s no breaks/repairs or nasty dings, and there's lots of life left in the frets – it’s been well looked after.

This is an extremely high-spec guitar, built in Gibson's Kalamazoo plant. Some of the features which distinguish the 25/50 include the intricate pearl and abalone "25/50" headstock inlay, creative use of silver and gold hardware combinations, abalone side dot marker inlays, 5-piece maple neck with comfortable medium (more 60’s-style) profile, Ebony board with split block parallelogram inlays (one of only two Les Paul production models to sport these inlays), enlarged control cavity, gold ‘Anniversary’ truss rod cover, and a coil tap mini-switch.

In addition it has multi-ply binding on the front/back of the body front of the headstock, a volute, Nashville bridge with TP-6 fine tuning tailpiece, black speed knobs, Schaller style "Gibson" tuners, and Series VII pickups which sounds superb – this is very much a ‘proper’ Les Paul with big tone.

It plays beautifully and comes complete with its original Gibson Protector case to keep this very special investment guitar safe.
