How to tell Custom Shop guitar


LarryS

Recommended Posts

Hi, This is a 1983 Les Paul Standard I am considering purchasing. Can anyone tell me what to look for to determine if this is a custom Shop guitar as advertised. As I understand the determination is being made based on the tuners and bridge. Is there any other observations or features I should look for. Thanks very much for your help.

If this guitar is from 1983 it's not a Custom Shop model because Custom Shop was created in 1993. I noticed that tuners have a double ring but it's easy to change, it's not an evidence that this guitar is a special model or anything else...
