SOLD WTS: 2005 Gibson Les Paul Standard Limited Edition (Manhattan Midnight Blue)

[distortion81]

Hello everybody,

Did not managed to sell this les paul of mine last round probably i priced it too high, this time round, i significantly reduced my asking price. Hope to sell this guitar away so that i can buy my dream custom guitar from fender.

This is a extremely rare guitar as it is limited run from 2004 to 2005. This 2005 model has slim 60s neck size. Its in mint condition,

Notable features of this guitar:
Rare Nitro finish on a standard model which usually only appears in custom shop les pauls or vintage pieces,
EBONY fingerboard!
RS Guitarworks vintage wiring kit definately makes the volume and tone usuable across all ranges,
Original Gibson 57 classics pickups,
Callaham ABR-1 bridge.

Condition is 9/10, did not give 10/10 as it is 7 years old already. Very resonating body and non-chambered nitro finished body for better tone. Must view to appreciate this collector's piece. This guitar has close to no fret wear as it is bought mainly for collection purpose, only took it out to play for a few minutes once every few months. And i store my guitars together with its case in humidity controlled cupboard, thats why this guitar's case still have loads of Nitro finishing smell!! Great!

I am selling it at $2900,

Interested please contact me anytime at 8 2 8 8 7 0 0 0 .

yeah...too precious and hefty and collectable guitar to bring around and play, thats why i am comtemplating to change to a fender which i prefer the snappy clean sound more than a thick les paul crunch.

thanks to all enquries on the guitar, as for trades, i really not looking at other same priced gibsons, maybe higher ends gibson custom shop reissue, of course i'll top up accordingly if you like my guitar and i like yours. But for now, pirority will be for buyers who just want to buy it with money. This is because i am not in need of another guitar to play... quite happy with a telecaster now. if cant get a reasonable price for this blue les paul, it make sense to carry on being it's owner. Its not an extra guitar to me because a tele sounds completely different from this les paul. But then again, my ears likes fender's stuff more. Gibson is just for my eye candy, i can live with or without them. thanks you everyone, cheers.
