1979 Gibson 25/50 Les Paul Electric Guitar - Sunburst

$2,579.40 $4,299

The Gibson Les Paul 25/50 Anniversary model - introduced in 1978 - was created to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the Les Paul Model and 50 years of Les Paul being in show-business. There were just over 3,400 examples made and shipped through late 1979, and features a 5 piece maple neck, gold and chrome hardware, coil tap mini switch, and most importantly: the 25/50 inlay on the headstock, all of which combine to give Les Paul model its own identity.

This example, finished in Tobacco Sunburst, is in excellent condition and displaying only minimal honest player wear with a few small dings. The gold hardware has held up nicely and shows almost no oxidation, and the maple top is understated with a beautiful wide figure and great character. Plus, you get great tone out of those twin Tarback Humbuckers!

Weighs is at 10 lbs 4 oz and comes complete with its original black - redlined Gibson case. Please email or call with any questions.
