1973 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe Goldtop Vintage Guitar, 100% Original w/ Case

1973 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe Goldtop Vintage Guitar, 100% Original w/ Case

Up for sale, a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. This well-kept Goldtop is a quintessential early ‘70s Deluxe, featuring a “sandwich” mahogany body capped with a carved maple top, three-piece mahogany neck, and a pair of mini humbuckers.

This Les Paul Deluxe's mini humbuckers deliver a round sound with great definition and punch. A perfect blend of humbucker growl and single coil sparkle, the mini hum's tonal properties are enhanced by the maple/mahogany body construction, offering both wooly bark and great treble cut. The top end snaps and sparkles, while the bass register stays tight and focused, and each position on the three-way pickup selector is distinct. This Les Paul Deluxe weights 9lbs, been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

Neck Specs:

-Wood: Mahogany (three-piece)
-Shape: Slender C, measuring .810” 1st fret, .999” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood, pearloid flared trapezoid inlay
-Frets: Medium jumbo, leveled/crowned, no wear
-Scale Length: 24 3/4”
-Nut: 1 11/16”
-Tuners: Gibson Deluxe double-line, double-ring
-Serialization: Six-digit stamp dates to ‘73

Body Specs:

-Wood: Maple, Mahogany
-Pickups: Mini Humbucker x2, Pat # decals
-Harness: Untouched solder, CTS pots date to the 44th week of ‘73
-Hardware: ABR-1 bridge, stopbar
-Plastics: One-ply pickguard, gold reflector cap knobs

The gloss Goldtop nitro lacquer finish is 100% original with no touch-up or overspray, exhibiting subtle checking along the binding on top. There is an area of shallow buckle rash central to the back and some minor dings on the back and lower bout perimeter; the top, by comparison, presents quite cleanly. The nitro gloss on the neck carve is smooth and inviting to the palm, with a few shallow marks that don’t distract the palm.

The original black tolex hardshell case with purple plush interior and silver silkscreen “Gibson” logo on the lid is included.
