1992 Gibson Pre-Historic '57 Les Paul Custom 3 Pickup Black Beauty w/ 57 Classic PAFs, Case
This Les Paul Custom delivers plenty of midrange warmth and fundamental richness thanks to the all-mahogany construction, and these qualities are balanced by the glassy treble cut and note attack of the ebony fingerboard. All three pickups are wired in-phase, with a bridge pickup that has both bite and bounce, accentuating the smooth growl of the mahogany construction and glassy snap of the ebony fingerboard. The neck pickup is smooth and buttery, and the middle pickup is combined with the bridge in the middle position. The sound gets delightfully wooly with the Tone control rolled back, too. This Les Paul Custom weighs 9lbs 4oz, benefitting from a professional setup here at Mike & Mikeâs Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
