This is a cool Gibson, the real Gibson Les Paul like you said.
The top of the body was refin ?
The new Les Paul Tribute are really fantastic, did you look at an Ebony fretboard Les Paul Studio ?
I like the 2018 Les Paul Faded, 2019 Les Paul Tribute tabacco burst is very nice IMHO

Nice Gibson Firebird clone , It' s not mine but I prefer Banjo tuners and Seymour Duncan mini-humbuckers. Is it normal the 1 ply pickguard?
