TP-6 on ´77 Gibson Les Paul Custom?


Buenaventura Durruti

Recommended Posts

Hi, some years ago I bought a ´77 Black beauty. The first thing I did is changing the microtuning TP-6 for a normal stopbar. What I would like to know is if this TP-6 came originally with the guitar. If not, is there any way to date it? In the back there is "GIbson" stamped in one side, beside to where the lower stud rests; and "Made in USA" beside to where the upper stud rests.

 

Thanks and sorry for my poor english

If I recall correctly- the TP6 wasn't introduced until sometime in the 80's.

I only came stock on a few models, and was availble aftermarket also.
