The Gibson Les Paul Deluxe first appeared in 1969, influenced heavily by parts Gibson had on hand. Using the P-90 routing patterns and ‘New Yorker’ style mini-humbuckers, the Les Paul Deluxe originally carried the ‘gold top’ finish but into the 1970’s received sunburst finishes.
This example dates to 1976 and it’s uncertain whether it was built in the old plant in Kalamazoo, Michigan or the new plant in Nashville, Tennessee. It’s been used as intended, so there is moderate wear to the finish on the back, and moderate fret wear. The original tuners were replaced with Gibson Deluxe ‘keystone’ models, leaving open screw holes behind. Otherwise, it looks and plays great! The original hardshell case is included.
