Gibson Les Paul Custom Shop Class 5

 

Tony Mckenzie has a great collection of many leading brands of electric guitars including Gibson, Fender, PRS, Ibanez and others. Check them out from the 'Tony's Guitars' section of this website. While the images are not huge, the quality is - so you get a real idea of just what this guitar is like in real life. Many are reviewed on the reviews pages so don't forget to check those reviews out. Also don't forget to visit the GALLERY with a section showing Tony McKenzie's guitars in hi resolution images. Many of the guitars are quite rare now.

The Custom Shop Les Paul was bought new in 1996 and remains one of the best topped Les Pauls ever bought by Tony. The weight was just 7.7 Lbs. which is very light for a Gibson Les Paul.

  • The Gibson Les Paul Custom Shop
  • Bought in 1996 as a Playable Collectors Guitar
  • The only one like this we have ever seen
  • Super Light for a Les Paul
  • Later Repaired Neck but was NEVER the same after the damage - thanks Dan...
  • NEVER LEND SOMEONE YOUR GUITAR
  • THEY USUALLY WILL NOT PAY TO PUT THE DAMAGE RIGHT
  • OR MAYBE THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO
  • THE GUITAR WILL LIKELY NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN
  • THIS IS A WARNING TO ALL WHO VENTURE THERE
  • Case: Black reptile pattern HS with black crushed velvet inside
