Oh my gosh.
We rarely seem to see Deluxes through of late..I mean, sometimes, but usually they have been modded for full size humbuckers, Kahlered, or any other multitude of sins. The type of sins that they won't let you past the pearly gates, allegedly.
However, what we have here is an unadulterated Les Paul Deluxe from 1976. Beautiful 3 piece cherry top with an especially well matched grain. Stunning figured in the mahogany on the back of the guitar. Slight lacquer cracking in the seam of the pancake body.
Has had different tuners on it at some point..but vintage Gibson Deluxe tuners are back on now, and there is a tiny patch to cover the extra hole..very well done. Hardware, knobs, pickups, pots, frets are all stock..and the frets still have loads of life left. One small ding near the control knobs.
These are honestly starting to get hard to find in any form let alone in this kind of condition.
If you are not familiar with mini humbuckers in an LP, you owe it to yourself to try one of these..the mini hums in my opinion have...slightly less throttle, more definition, and are as versatile as the day is long.

"I can hear the hound dogs on my trail
All hell breaks loose, alarm and sirens wail
Like the game if you lose
Go to jail
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
Somewhere in the town
Tonight there's gonna be a jailbreak
So don't you be around" - Thin Lizzy, Jailbreak.
