This instrument comes in its original Gibson Custom Shop Lifton Reissue Case. This is the less historically accurate, but more protective version of the case with a double neck rest. It has some light storage and usage wear, but maintains a clean appearance. Inside the compartment sleeps the COA, additional paperwork and a black pickguard if you wish to install it.
The Guitar!
This one is based off of the limited edition 2018 Les Paul Custom Chambered Blackout. Those instruments were available in F1 Orange, Diablo Yellow, Stallion Red, and Ebony. The original owner wanted something a little bit more special though and custom ordered this one through Gibson's Made to Measure (M2M) program in a sparkle metallic blue which looks killer. It might appear a flat blue color in photos, but there is also a metallic sheen to it in the light that makes it turn slightly yellow. Another AWESOME customization for this one is a 5 piece maple neck instead of mahogany. This gives the neck extra stability and a snappier tone. Besides that, this guitar is the same as the production run.
5-Piece Maple Neck (Maple/Walnut/Maple/Walnut/Maple)
Long Neck Tenon
Chambered 1-piece Mahogany Body (2-Piece Maple Top)
Richlite Fretboard
Blacked-Out Pearl Inlays
Black Hardware
Stock Schaller Strap Locks
Stock EMG 81 / 85 Active Electronics
Black Binding Along Neck and Body
This instrument is in very cool condition. It just shows minor polishing swirls and light picking scratches. There is the typical lacquer shrinkage lines along the graphite nut and by the neck joint. You can also see the join lines on the pieces of the maple neck under the finish.
Conclusion
The Blackout series is actually pretty cool. Being a custom ordered one-off definitely adds a little bit more rarity to this one and it would complement the others in your collection nicely or is sure to impress on the stage!
