Description: Born on the Bicentennial of The United States and also a great year for Rock n Roll (Aerosmith, Steve Miller, Queen, ELO, Boston, Frampton and many more were flying high on the charts), this Rock n’ Roll survivor from ’76 has the magic and legitimate vibe of that era built into its DNA. All the music that’s been poured into it over the years just pours out when you play it. This is what folks think of when they think of a great mid 1970s Les Paul; the medium neck that fits just right in the hand, the hefty but not over the top weight (9lbs 15oz) and that singing sustain with the defined low end, throaty but toneful midrange and the ringing but never harsh top end. This guitar kicks ass and needs to get back to where it belongs..in the hands of a player who will cherish it as much as the last owner did.
