1957 Gibson Les Paul TV Special / GuitarPoint Maintal / Vintage Guitars

1957 Gibson Les Paul Special - TV-Yellow
Nice and rare 1957 Gibson Special all original and in excellent condition for its age. Nice strong, unfaded TV-Yellow finish, which is much brighter than the "Mahagoni-lime"-finish they used on the early Special-models. The tuners had been changed to Schallers, but the original Kluson "3 on a stripe" machineheads are back on. Two perfectly balanced P-90 pickups with outputs of 8,39K (neck) and 8,62K (bridge) in combination with that big neck, make this guitar a real "Rocker". Comes in newer brown hardshell case.

Techn. details:

Solid 1-piece mahagony body - single cutaway,
Strong 1-piece mahagony neck,
Bound rosewood fretboard with 22 frets,
2x perfectly balanced P-90s singlecoil pickups,
4x controls (2x Vol+2xTone), 3-way toggleswitch,
Original wrap-around aluminum tailpiece,
Incl. brown hardshell case.

The Specials are a great sounding guitar! Beautiful sound!

You definitely know how to use this beauty and use it well. Great rhythm, great leader, great presentation. “Ocra”, real cute, Heir Yander (I hope I got that right).

I just got a “putative brother” of this model, an Epiphone Casino. It will probably never be the same thing, but it definitely does the job.

Wonder how much this cost? I bought a new one last year for £380 from Amazon because nobody wanted them. :(

“Like a 50’s Les Paul neck...” it IS a 50’s Les Paul, isn’t it??
