Circa 1980 GIBSON Les Paul Heritage 80 Standard. These guitars have stood the test of time with players and collectors alike because tonally little else compares. These guitars are characteristically FAT sounding lush Les Pauls. The tone nails all those classic rock riffs you have in your head. The notes are SO full and maybe it’s the Shaw pickups?…maybe it’s the fact that these tend to be a little bit heavier?….maybe it’s the good Mahogany used back in the day?…..not certain but all I know is I just LOVE the tone on this. PLay it next to a modern LP (and boy I sure did vs. several) and you will hear it for yourself. New guitars sound like toys vs. this one.
You can see all the specs & a detailed condition report in the 3rd Picture. Overall the guitar has a very light weight for one of these. The guitar has wear thoughout but nothing (in my opinion) that is terrible. It just looks and feels used and naturally relic’d. Price-wise these guitars are true bargains. Get a collectible classic that has world class tone for the price of a junky modern guitar…no brainer. I look for value in the market and that’s why I selected this piece.
