Produced for only a short period during the early 1970s, these distinctive pickups are highly regarded for their clear, articulate voice, strong output, and unique appearance featuring the Gibson logo embossed directly into the pickup covers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"533\" data-end=\"943\"\u003eBuilt during Gibson's Kalamazoo era, this Les Paul Custom showcases the elegant appointments that earned the model its \"Black Beauty\" reputation, including multi-ply binding, block inlays, and premium construction throughout. The Tobacco Burst finish highlights the maple top beautifully, while the mahogany body and neck deliver the rich sustain and authoritative midrange that Les Paul Customs are known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"945\" data-end=\"1327\"\u003eThis guitar remains in good condition for its age, showing honest cosmetic wear consistent with decades of use. The finish exhibits typical vintage checking, minor dings, scratches, and playwear throughout.
