Gibson 2003 Melody Maker Worn Black! Dog-Ear P90 43672

Description
You're looking at a 2003 Gibson Les Paul Melody Maker in black finish that's a really cool looking guitar. Solid mahogany body and neck with rosewood fingerboard. Guitar is bone stock. These have really taken off in popularity recently as you get a very lightweight guitar with a simple P90 setup that just sounds great. The dog-ear P-90 strapped to the mahogany body makes for lots of sustain and grit--killer rock tone.

If you add a pickguard, these look just like a Les Paul Jr., except with a very thin body. (It only weighs 6 pounds, 8 ounces!) These Melody Makers get a thin nitro finish from the factory, so they show wear really nicely and let your tone come through. Set up and plays great. Honestly I want to keep this guitar, but gotta sell it. Cosmetics are very clean with only the nice kind of wear showing a little wood around some edges. Frets are in great shape. No case. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking!

Guitar Setup
All our setups are done by our in-house trained luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!

Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
