This guitar is in good condition with some dings and noticeable cosmetic wear. The original P-100 pickups were removed a long time ago and replaced with a Seymour Duncan in the bridge and a Gibson Soapbar in the neck. While this instrument has some cosmetic wear and finish checking, the headstock has never been broken and the frets are in good condition with lots of life left. All other parts are original and in good condition. A full setup has been done by our techs and the guitar is strung with D'Addario EXL110 strings. This guitar does not include a case or gig bag.

 

From Gibson

All this information was found from the 1997 Gibson website

Gibson has always recognized that today's aspiring young musicians are tomorrow's working pros. Superb Gibson quality at an attractive price made the Les Paul Special a popular choice when it was first introduced back in 1954. To this day, the Les Paul Special is still a great value and a great guitar for any player! With its solid mahogany body and neck, the Special has the same classic stability and playability as other LP's, but the all mahogany construction gives it a fat, smooth character that's unbeatable for blues, crunchy rock, and wicked slide tones.

Another component of the Special's distinctive tone is a matched set of Gibson's new P-100 stacked humbucking pickups. A modern successor to Gibson's legendary P-90, the P100 has that fat, nasty single-coil tone without the hum associated with the originals.
