❌SOLD❌ Gibson Les Paul DC Standard Limited Ocean Water Blue, 2016

Instrument Categories: , , ,

The Gibson Les Paul DC Standard (DC for Double Cutaway), sporting a lovely AA+ Flamed Maple top and Ocean Water Blue finish, was built during 2016 in Nashville, Tennessee. For this limited run, 100 guitars were built in each of three colours – Cherry Sunburst, Wine Red and Ocean Water Blue.

The Les Paul DC Standard is based on the mid-1958 Gibson Les Paul Special, which used a double-cutaway, Mahogany slab body. This design allowed unrestricted access to the entire neck and was ultimately replaced by the double-cutaway SG body design.

This example is in excellent, clean condition with only very minor wear. It plays well and cleanly, and its relatively light weight is a relief – and due to chambered weight relief.

Sold with its original brown, TKL built Gibson branded hard shell case.

Here’s the builder on the Gibson Les Paul DC Standard:

“Featuring beautifully flamed maple tops, these Gibson Les Paul Double Cutaway Standards are instantly recognizable as true Gibson Les Paul, while also immediately standing out for themselves. Very limited run of 100 units per color. “
