This is a mint , unplayed, Gibson Les Paul Brazilian fretboard, 1959 R9 Standard. Weighs a hefty 8 pounds 11 ounces. Ships in OHSC with a Lifton Seal on the interior- indicating a re-entry of Lifton into the market, perhaps. Solid body with 2 piece bookmatched maple cap in VOS Washed Cherry. Just gorgeous. The fretboard is an almost black Brazilian Rosewood . All paperwork and tags included. Returns for defects - other reasons may incur a 5% restocking fee. Satisfaction is guaranteed. Thanks.
