GIBSON 2016 Les Paul Studio T Pelham Blue Beautiful USA LP w/ 490 PUs 42287
Description
This is a 2016 Gibson Les Paul Studio in rare Pelham Blue finish. To me this is just absolute, hands down, one of the best and hardest to find colors for a Les Paul. Set off nicely with the creme plastics. Features large block inlays on the neck, great sounding 490 humbuckers, and the classic 60s Slim Taper neck profile.
Weight relieved mahogany body with maple top and rosewood fretboard. Flexible tones with push/pull controls to split the pickups. Cosmetically there are small marks (see pics) and some "greening" on armrest and back of neck, which is a classic color change that happens over time with Pelham Blue. Frets show some mild flattening and grooving but lots of meat left, and it plays great up and down the neck. Weight is 8 pounds, 6 ounces. 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 setups are done by our in-house 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.
