2013 Gibson Les Paul 59 RI Collector’s Choice #8 “The Beast” Aged Dirty Lemon!

This is a wonderful example of one of Gibson's most desirable reissue models of all time. The Collector's Choice series was great in itself but "The Beast" is one of the best of that heralded run of guitars. The original burst 9-1914 has a long and storied history. Gibson did a great job on these. This guitar is all original and comes with the original hard case, COA, paperwork etc including the original price tag from when it was sold new by CME back in 2013. Really a great Les Paul and holds up well to any Les Paul from any era.
