NGD: 1985 Gibson Les Paul custom silverburst

[GOHOINC]

I was looking for a birth year Gibson but couldn't pass up this near perfect 85. Little thicker neck than the 21 Silverburst I had, stock pickups are better than the custombuckers that were in the 21 as well. Still has the patent stickers on the pickup rings and original warranty card. Tuners were swapped for newer schallers but originals in the chainsaw... What a treat!

Looks aged to the perfect color. Super cool, congrats!

That couldn't have been very cheap.

Didn't cost me a penny... Traded for it.

Beautiful guitar. I recently purchased an 85 Custom tobacco burst and it's killer. Enjoy yours.

Love my 85 custom tobacco burst and I’m sure yours is just as amazing. Congrats on the NGD!

Does yours have the wide short frets?

Indeed every Gibson I've had from the 80s has had similar frets.
