Here’s a Gibson Les Paul Standard Cherry Sunburst dating to October 22, 1980, sporting a Cherry Sunburst finish and a non-weight relieved, non-pancake body! The Les Paul model was introduced in 1952 as Gibson’s entry into the then-new solidbody ‘Spanish’ electric guitar field, where ‘Spanish’ refers to the way the guitar is held.

Built during 1979 in Fullerton, California, this Fender Cherryburst Stratocaster is in good clean and original condition, with light finish checking. In constant production since its 1954 introduction, the Fender Stratocaster quickly established itself as one of the most versatile and reliable instruments, suitable for every genre that accepts the electric guitar.

The variation from original is the addition of a set of Gold-plated Schaller Straplocks, with the strap attachments mounted on the included leather strap. This guitar dates to February 07 1979 and was built at the historic Parsons Street plant in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The Les Paul Custom was introduced in 1954, along with the flat-top ‘budget’ Les Paul Junior; the Les Paul Special appeared in 1955, and the Standard in 1958.

MORE →Designed to express class and quality, the Gibson Les Paul Custom Ebony Black with gold plated appointments appeared in 1954 and has been top of the range since. From introduction until the single-cutaway Les Paul design was dropped in 1961, the Custom lacked the Maple cap the other carved-top models had and was all-Mahogany. When the design was re-introduced in 1968 and to the present day, that changed and the basic construction has been the same as for the other models.
