Personal Thoughts:
A true black-tie icon. The ’57 Les Paul Custom is the ultimate tuxedo guitar—blacked out, dripping in gold, and ready to purr or roar. The all-mahogany body gives it a darker, thicker tone than its maple-topped siblings, while the Custombuckers push out everything from syrupy jazz cleans to snappy rock crunch.
This 2024 VOS model nails the vintage vibe with subtle aging and a satin glow, while modern playability stays intact thanks to the smooth frets and solid neck profile. It’s a no-nonsense player’s Custom that wears its elegance lightly.
Condition Report:
Excellent condition. There are faint signs of surface pick swirling visible in direct light, but nothing through the finish or distracting. No chips, dents, or buckle rash. Frets and hardware are clean, and the guitar plays immaculately.
