Gibson Les Paul TV Model 1957
I'm thrilled to offer this clean 1957 Gibson Les Paul TV Model (not quite a Junior!) to the market for the first time since it was sold new. It's 100% original except for replacement tuner buttons on the original machines. It still had Gibson brand flat wound strings when it came into the shop (now strung with 10s).
Do you have one you're considering selling? Contact me here:
Measurements: 7.3 lbs / 3.3 kg total weight. The neck measures 1.68" (1 11/16") wide at the nut, 0.90" deep at the first fret, and 0.97" deep at the 12th fret. The pickup reads 8.72k ohms.
Repairs: None!
Originality: This guitar is 100% original except the tuner buttons.
Playability: Excellent! The neck is straight and there is no wear on the frets.
Condition: Excellent with subtle finish checking and some nicks and dings.
Included: The original chipboard case is included but is falling apart. The bottom edge of the case is detaching from the back.
Fine Print: All guitars ship via FedEx Priority Overnight for domestic sales or FedEx Priority International. I offer a 48 hour approval period beginning on delivery for all sales during which you are welcome to opt for a return as long as the guitar is still in as-sent condition. I do not charge a restocking fee, but any non-refunded payment processing fees, outbound shipping, and return shipping costs are subtracted from the refund in the case of a return.
