This is a nice older Les Paul Studio that has definitely been used but not abused (certainly not babied either).
I was thinking that it would be a great guitar for a project like what nic had done with that Studio that he stripped and then did a finish on just the top but I don't think I am really up to a project like that.

There are many numerous little marks in the finish on this one which is almost a chocolate with wine mixed in there. Some chips around the edges too. I think they called this colour 'oxblood' - it's pretty cool how it can look so different by changing lighting. The pickups are both Gibson but I don't know what models. It looks like someone added a cover to the bridge pup. There is no fret wear and it sounds excellent/plays smooth.
In the extra photos there is another shot of the 3rd fret marker area as well.
Check the photos for a small crack near one of the tuners. Crack is stable and previous owner said that it never moved in 10 years. It is not through the finish that is on the front of the headstock.
$750 hard shell case included. Shipping to USA destination would likely be $65 insured.
