1979 Gibson Les Paul Standard in Cherry Sunburst, presented in very good condition for its age and complete with its Gibson Chainsaw hard case. This USA-made vintage Les Paul is a superb example from the late 1970s, retaining its original specification and delivering the unmistakable sound and feel that have made vintage Gibson guitars so desirable among players and collectors.

Finished in classic Cherry Sunburst, this Les Paul Standard showcases the bold character and substantial build associated with Gibson's Norlin-era instruments. Weighing 10.6 lbs, it offers the powerful sustain, rich harmonic content and authoritative midrange response that many players seek from a vintage Les Paul.

This example remains all original and has clearly been well cared for throughout its life. It plays comfortably, sounds exceptional and delivers the authentic vintage Gibson tone that has defined countless classic rock, blues and hard rock recordings.

Tonally, it offers everything expected from a great late-1970s Les Paul Standard: strong sustain, thick yet articulate midrange, clear highs and a full-bodied low end. Whether played clean or through a driven amplifier, it responds with the depth, warmth and character that make vintage Les Pauls so highly regarded.
