Description

Freshly set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech.  In Excellent condition with modest wear for an instrument of this age, including some light scratches and natural aging of parts and finish.  This guitar has been modified cosmetically by the former owner to replicate the look of Sex PIstols Steve Jones' 1974 Les Paul Custom by applying and positioning identical decals on the top, and removing the pickup covers, toggle switch ring, and pickguard.  All the original parts are included, however, if you wanted to de-Jonesify the guitar.  Also, the original hard shell case (not pictured) has some period-correct reissue stickers from the Sex Pistols 1978 U.S. tour.  See below for more details and specifications.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:

We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings.  Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so.  We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument.  Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing. 

We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear.  If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us at the Shop for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have.  Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
