Moe's Guitars, Our philosophy: If we wouldn't play it, we wouldn't sell it; it's that simple.

2012 Gibson Les Paul Limited or as I call it a '52 Reissue. The is the only Gibson Les Paul I recall Gibson stating the wood selection used to be Grade A.

From Gibson

"To accurately recreate the unparalleled look, feel and tone of the early Les Pauls, Gibson USA crafts the Les Paul 60th Anniversary Goldtop’s body from a solid, non-weight-relieved, one-piece Grade-A mahogany blank topped with a solid, carved two-piece maple top. The body’s weight and solidity achieve astounding sonic girth and sustain, while the classic maple-mahogany combination blends tonal warmth and depth with plenty of cut and clarity. The one-piece, Grade-A mahogany neck is carved to the thick, meaty early-’50s profile that plenty of modern players have come to love and appreciate, a constructional choice that not only yields plenty of grip in the left hand, but enhances tone considerably by transferring a greater proportion of neck resonance into the body, via the time-tested, mortise and tenon Gibson neck joint. A Grade-A rosewood fingerboard is bound in vintage cream, with acrylic trapezoid inlays, and partnered by a vintage-cream pickguard that has been hot-stamped in gold with the “60th Anniversary” legend. As was the practice in the first year of production, the three-way pickup switch carries no plastic ring."

The instrument is super clean without repairs, alterations or modifications. Other than a few small marks on the back (which do not photograph) it is as close to a new showroom instrument as will get. I don't think this instrument has more than two weeks play time on it. The fret wire shows almost no wear. Google Les Paul Limited for all the specs.

The neck is chunky, but not a R8 baseball bat neck. Neck dimensions taken off the instrument .
