1978 Gibson Les Paul Artisan 3-pickup1569 viewsIt's hard to find one of these in sunburst.
|
|
1978 Gibson Les Paul Recording1455 viewsThis is a factory Second, with one finish flaw on the back. Otherwise near mint.
|
|
1979 Gibson L5S Custom 459 viewsA very interesting guitar, and fascinating part of Gibson history. Fun to play! These never really caught on, but they are cool guitars. Solid maple body, 3-piece flame maple. Only downside is the weight - 10 lbs.
|
|
1979 Gibson ES Artist1020 viewsA really unusual model from Gibson's past. Has active electronics by Moog, including active tone controls and compression, brightness, and expansion switches. Note the dot markers to the side of the neck. It also has a very unusual headstock inlay (not shown). This one is in near mint condition and sounds awesome!
|
|
1979 Gibson Les Paul KM Kalamazoo Model2007 viewsIt's hard to find these with flame tops. Big Al once told me that he saw KMs with flame tops being shipped to Japan during a factory tour of the old Kalamazoo factory.
|
|
1979 Guild Starfire VI363 viewsAn incredibly cool guitar from the late 70's. Build in the Westerly RI plant.
|
|
1980 Gibson Les Paul Artist Black1607 viewsLike the ES Artist, the Les Paul Artist model has active electronics by Moog, including active tone controls and compression, brightness, and expansion switches. This guitar is in mint condition. It was unsold inventory. Note the sticker still on the pickguard.
|
|
1980 Gibson Les Paul Artist Sunburst1350 viewsAnother Les Paul Artist with active electronics by Moog. I love the sunburst color! The active tone controls and the switches make for some cool and unusual tones. Turn down the volume if you flip on the compression switch!
|
|
1980 Gibson Les Paul Heritage 80 Standard2259 viewsThis Heritage Standard 80 has one of the curliest (and prettiest) tops that I've seen on this model. The photo doesn't do it justice.
|
|
1981 Gibson Les Paul Flametop Reissue One-Off1754 viewsHas pearloid plaque on the back of the headstock with special serial number.
|
|
1981 Gibson Les Paul Heritage 80 Elite1895 viewsEven though they aren't "historically correct", I've always had a soft spot for the Heritage series guitars.
|
|
1982 Gibson Les Paul Artisan 2-pickup1537 viewsOne of 10 made that year with black binding
|
|
1982 Gibson Les Paul Guitar Trader Model1840 viewsPurchased from a dealer in Japan. I had quite an experience communicating with him to do the transaction!
|
|
1982 Gibson Les Paul Heritage 80 Elite1703 viewsVery unusual quilt top on this one.
|
|
1982 Gibson Les Paul Heritage Award1648 viewsThey got a bit carried away with the cherry sunburst on this one. I love the mineral streaks. Very rare guitar. Has a pearloid plaque on the back, with serial number 39. Approximately 50 were made.
|
|
1982 Gibson Les Paul Leo's Model1703 viewsDespite the clownburst color, this guitar has a great wavy flametop and looks great in person. Fit and finish are top notch. It also plays and sounds great!
|
|
1982 Gibson Les Paul Standard 82 Model1794 viewsThis is near mint.
|
|
1983 Gibson Les Paul One-Off2333 viewsOne piece quilt top. You can drown in the waves of quilt on this one.
