1959 Gibson Les Paul Jr. "Luanne"

Here is a guitar than can truly be described as "one-of-a-kind"! Starting life as a 1959 double cut Les Paul Jr, this all mahogany guitar has the distinctive growl that have made these the instrument of choice for so many rock n' roll players over the years. The original owner routed this guitar for a humbucking pickup in place of the original P90, and painted it in a menacing, solid "black" finish. To top it off, he had his wife's name engraved onto a pickguard, giving this instrument its current name, "Luanne". This guitar was owned by a professional touring musician who used it on stage with artists like Hank Williams, Jr. and others, making it a genuine, road warrior, with the type of vibe that simply can't be replicated. There is a repaired headstock break, as well as a filled tremolo cavity from a previous modifications, as well as a professionally refretted neck, all handled by the top-tier luthiers at Gibson guitars in Nashville. This is the perfect guitar for a Player looking for genuine 1950's wood with real vintage mojo for a fraction of the price of an original!
