It has a perfectly straight neck that feels amazing. We believe the frets to be original, but they have been dressed down pretty low. They still have enough life that they play great. Everything is original with only exception being the screw for the tremolo arm. This model has been seen with both the flat tremolo arm and this ivory tip tremolo arm. This vintage Les Paul is 100% complete including its original hardshell case. There has been a set of Grover keys on it at one time, but the originals are back on. The tuning peg holes were slightly widened, but not so wide to prevent the original bushings from fitting right into place without compensation. Fortunately, there are no extra screw holes from the Grovers. There are lots of nicks + dings, finish checking, and other cosmetic wear including a tiny crack going down from the heel which appears to be in the finish only. This guitar is structurally sound with no cracks, breaks, or repairs. The back and sides show more of the true Cherry color than the front, but as you'll see in the pictures below, it still looks good. All electronics are original with a great sounding set of PAF pickups. All solder joints remain untouched and unbroken. Highest bidder pays highest bid + shipping.
