2014 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Special TV Yellow VOS

Description

Got this Les Paul back in 2014 – it’s a Custom Shop ‘60 Special in TV Yellow, VOS nitrocellulose finish. It’s been in my collection for years and honestly, it’s one of those guitars that just clicks with your playing style.

Condition’s solid – 9/10 overall. A couple of tiny marks in the lacquer, barely noticeable, and just a bit of light wear on the pickguard from regular use. Nothing major. I had it professionally set up recently and swapped to new strings – feels great now.

Includes the original Custom Shop case, certificate of authenticity, and all the paperwork. The setup was done by a proper tech, so it’s ready to go right out of the box.

Body’s 1-piece mahogany, neck’s mahogany with that classic 1960 slim taper, 12" radius, Indian rosewood fingerboard with pearloid dots. 22 medium jumbo frets, 24.75" scale. I’ve used it a lot over the years – it’s reliable, responsive, and has a warm, rich tone.

It’s a bit heavy at 3.4kg, but that’s what you’d expect from a solid-bodied Les Paul. Comes with Kluson wraparound tuners, P90s in both the neck and bridge pickups, two volume controls, two tone controls, and a 3-way toggle.

I’m based in Bournemouth, so no issues with local viewings – just pop by if you’re around. Part-exchanges are always open to discussion. I do buy guitars for cash, so if you’re thinking of swapping, let me know.

Fully insured, and I can ship it both domestically and internationally. Just a heads-up – international buyers will need to check their country’s import duties and customs fees, as those are the buyer’s responsibility.

Photos aren’t perfect – lighting can shift the finish a bit, so don’t expect a one-to-one match. But it’s a real, playable, and well-loved instrument. If you’ve ever wanted a classic Les Paul with that vintage vibe, this one’s in great shape.
