Description:
Up for sale is a preowned 2018 Gibson Les Paul Traditional in Tobacco Burst, complete with the original brown Gibson hardshell case, tags, and case candy. The Les Paul Traditional series stays true to the classic late-’50s formula with a solid mahogany body, carved maple top, and no modern weight relief. It’s built for players who prefer a more vintage-style feel and sound.
This particular example has a notably beautiful flamed maple top, with deep, three-dimensional figuring that really stands out compared to what’s usually seen on this model. The Tobacco Burst finish brings out the grain perfectly, giving it an upscale look without being flashy.

Condition is very clean overall, with only light signs of use such as faint pick swirling and a few small surface marks. Nothing through the finish or affecting playability. Frets are excellent, the neck is smooth, and all electronics are fully functional.
It has been fully set up in our shop: fresh strings installed, truss rod and relief adjusted, frets polished, nut and action dialed in, and pickup height balanced. It plays and feels like a well-cared-for example of a Traditional from this era, with that classic Les Paul tone and substantial feel.
