*Available for £5195 with payment by bank transfer. Email us at info@jordanguitars.co.uk to arrange discount*

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.

This example stands out from the crowd with a sensational quilted top (also photographed natural light as this makes the top more visible) and is in exceptional condition for its age with little in the way of blemishes - it even still has the plastic wrap still over the pickguard/backplate ready for removal. We've highlighted everything we can see under direct studio lighting to exaggerate them as much as possible - but in normal lighting they are barely noticeable.

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 slim-medium (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 for increased tonal versatility.

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 sound incredible.

A collectors dream, this incredible example comes complete with its Gibson Protector case to keep your investment protected.
