F/S 1994 Orville By Gibson 57C Gold Top Reissue

For your consideration a 1994 Orville By Gibson 57c Reissue Les Paul. Built at the FujiGen factory in Japan. If you're looking I won't bore you with the small details about these well built guitars. I will say this model was made with very good craftsmanship. Nitro finish with Fret Edge binding and long tenon are standard on this model. She also comes with Gibson 57 Classic pickups from the factory. She also has 500k pots and Sprague Vintage Bumble Bee pots added. Everything else is original on this girl. She has 3 dings as shown in pictures9,10 and 11. She has very minor swirls on her back with "NO NECK Breaks or repairs anywhere on her. She weighs 8.37 lbs according to post office scale. She has a solid body with no chambering or weight relief. Her frets are in great shape with no pitting and very little wear. Her one piece neck is straight and her fretboard is very dark but I don't think it's Ebony. Her neck size is about the size of a 59R. Not a baseball bat but not a 60's slim either, very comfortable. I will ship world wide but contact me first for cost. Asking $1250 shipped to CUSA. PM me with your email for more photo's if interested.
