This was the best top from a recent group of Left Handed 2013 Gibson R9 Les Pauls; Iced Tea color, VOS finish, Nickel hardware, COA/OHSC with all tags & paperwork, original factory shipping box, Brand New/Unplayed.

It has a really beautiful figured top that features great complex flame with tremendous movement. And when you pick it up, you know right away it’s the perfect weight for a Les Paul: 8 1/2 lbs, or 8lbs, 8 oz to be exact. One of the nicest left handed Historic 1959 Les Pauls I’ve gotten in!

This is an unmolested, unharvested time capsule Lefty 1958 ES-175D! Late 50s/Early 60s original ES-175s with PAFs are getting impossible to find, as the poachers have virtually decimated these guitars for their prized electronics, especially the PAFs. To find a Left Handed example, particularly in this pristine condition, takes the definition of “Rare” to a completely higher and unheard of level!

This guitar is in Near Mint Condition, with only the requisite repair(done very well) on the bottom of the zig zag tailpiece. This was a very common occurrence on these tailpieces, and so they are typically repaired or replaced with the more stable early 50s trapeze tailpiece, such as on my righty 1959 ES-175D.
