SOLD - Gibson Les Paul Standard Faded 2005, Shed PAF Daddys and Faber Hardware
After a few messages when posting I may be selling this I thought I'd better get on with actually doing a classified ad!
In the quest to score a vintage junior and free up some funds I've made the rash decision to sell my 2005 Gibson Les Paul Faded. You all probably know about this sought after year of the fadeds so I won't waffle on about it. There's plenty of info over on mlp and Larry Corsa's site if you don't know much about them though. This was the first year of these Fadeds and they're the only ones with the traditional weight relieving rather than chambered bodies and is considered the best year for these models.
It's got an incredible top that changes appearance from all angles. There's some nice figuring, flame and mineral steaks that give it a real vintage vibe. It's currently fitted with Shed PAF Daddy aged zebra pickups (I don't have the original Burstbuckers anymore). There's a Faber aged kit in place replacing the studs, inserts, tailpiece and now an ABR Faber bridge. There is a set of aged Kluson tuners and art of aging knobs, pointers, plastics and switch tip (the original plastics and knobs are in the case).
The neck is a very comfortable 60s profile and the guitar weighs in around 8lb 13oz on bathroom scales. It comes in it's original Gibson hardcase but there is no pickguard (not that you'd want to cover up this top anyway).
I'm looking for £1500 ppg/bank transfer for it including delivery in the UK.
Edit sold 1400
Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for looking.

Looking for any trades? Santa & impending house renovation depletes the funds.

Agreed on the Burstbucker Pros. They can sound thin and brittle. Upgrade a Faded with better pickups and good hardware, and it's right up there with the historics.
and will you be at home over Christmas ?
which days will you be visiting relatives?
