Personal Thoughts
This 2011 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Pro is a beautiful and elegant instrument. The Heather Poly finish gives it a soft, sophisticated aesthetic that stands out without being flashy. The Gibson BurstBucker 2 (Neck) and BurstBucker 3 (Bridge) pickups are a versatile combination, delivering smooth, warm tones in the neck position and biting, punchy tones in the bridge—perfect for everything from blues to hard rock. The rounded neck profile strikes a balance between comfort and substance, making it a joy to play.
This guitar feels like it’s spent more time in its hardcase than being played, which explains its well-preserved condition and lightly aged appearance. It’s a fantastic piece for players who appreciate the tonal power of a Les Paul Custom with a touch of understated luxury.
 
Condition Report
This guitar is in very clean condition, with only a few minor signs of age. There is some light checking around the tuners and nut, a small impression on the side bout, and some very subtle patina on the hardware, all consistent with a guitar that’s spent significant time in its case. The Heather Poly finish remains vibrant and smooth, while the frets and rosewood fingerboard are in excellent shape, ensuring a comfortable and clean playing experience.
A wonderful example of a lightly aged, well-preserved Les Paul Custom Pro, ready for someone to enjoy its timeless tone and beauty.
