Belva Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 So what are the best years the Les Paul Custom model has seen since she was made? Do write down your data guys. Take care! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sok66 Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I'd think by consensus the '68 - early '69s. Maple top, 2 pickups, one piece necks, with out the Norlin pancake bodies, etc. The original 50s era have mahogany bodies and are rather dark sounding, though ultra cool intheir own right. Also give a nod to the early Henry J. era Customs. The "Fretless Wonder" frets (referred to as the "Fretless Blunder") were a curse for string bending. In the day I must have sent two dozen out for re-freting as part of the sales deal. I tried to order them with standard frets from Norlin-era Gibson and got an earful from the sales rep about me trying to redesign the guitar.
