Description

Just in! An elusive Gibson model from prime Norlin era, the Artist offered a unique 9V powered compression/eq circuit designed by Moog as well as your usual LP Custom features, plus a TP-6 tailpiece, brass nut, and a custom headstock inlay.

A relatively "plain" top in Antique Sunburst is stunning with the gold hardware- the whole package screams "professional grade instrument". A 5pc Maple/Ebony neck and a tummy-cut contour lend to comfort and stability, and the original frets are looking at about 50% of their original height with favorable action and that immediate, spanky tone. T-Tops are a favorite among Gibson fans, and us as well here at the shop!

10 lbs 12 oz.

  • Bass, Treble, and Volume controls
  • 3 On/Off toggles: Expansion, Compression, Bright
  • 24.75" Scale
  • Original parts, except rear strap button.
  • Slim Taper "60s" style neck shape

*Expansion mode is interesting- pronouncing the attack of the note with a faster decay, perfect for adding pop and note definition to solos. Almost distinctly opposite to compression.

Very Good condition (near EX), includes OHSC.
