Gibson Les Paul Model goldtop -54 serial 43039, beg. (Stockholm)

Very Good condition, 7/10, all original parts, no breaks or repairs, the weight is 4,24 kilograms = 9,34 pounds, including original brown 4-latch hardcase with pink lining, wraparound bridge, both finish and plastic parts light up nicely under the blacklight, worn original frets (will probably need a refret soon but we leave this to the next owner), tiny wood crack by the treble side bridge post, worn and crazed finish, a weird mark in the pickguard (perhaps from a soldering iron?), rusty pickguard bracket, thin binding in the cutaway, single ring no-line Kluson tuners, the braided 2-strand shielded wire to the output jack has been cut and grated to a modern piece of braided shielded 3-strand wire with insulation, probably to make the lead longer to make it easier to solder and re-install, the brown Switchcraft output jack looks correct for 1954, has had a different screw pattern output jack plate installed but the holes are now filled and an original style repro is now installed
