Overview
It is a pleasure to offer for sale this absolutely stunning Les Paul, all we can say is Joe's been cooking up one spicy Tomato Soup!
This Limited Run guitar was crafted back in 2016 and was one of just 150 exclusive pieces worldwide (100 with the Stoptail and 50 with a Bigsby).
If you're after a highly rare and unique '60s inspired Les Paul bursting with period-correct features (and some added zing), look no further.
This Joe Bonamassa Signature has been perfectly seasoned with all the right ingredients that pack a punch! Joe has spec'd it with a pair of proprietary Seymour Duncan humbuckers, the 52-Nc & 53-Nc, you will only find these on the Tomato Soup Burst. They have been produced to recreate classic vintage PAF tones (albeit adapted slightly to Joe's taste). The electronics have been handwired and feature Orange Drop capacitors to further match the Les Paul of the '60s era.
The finish of this unique Burst is rich and lustrous. It perfectly compliments the beautiful AAA Flame Maple Top and contrasts well against the Dark Rosewood fretboard that is paired with a SlimTaper mahogany neck.
The guitar is in excellent condition throughout and is virtually unplayed. It was owned by a JB fan and collector since new who kept in its case nearly all its life since 2016. As such, this is one of the finest examples of this rare model that you will ever find.
The frets show no sign of usage, as they had a bit of patina with age we have given it a fret polish to bring them back their original lustre.
The guitar has a small impression on the left-hand side towards the lower bout. On the top there is tiny impression near the volume/tone controls. Both are only shallow being around 0.1-0.3mm deep. You will need to catch them in the light and look very closely to notice them. We have photographed these and highlighted them (please see final two pictures in the gallery).
All case candy is present including the Gibson Owner's Manual, Gibson Gold Warranty pamphlet, dust cloth, Scratchplate (with film still on), truss rod key, allen keys, bench photo etc.
Weight is 3.90kg / 8.60lb.
