❌SOLD❌  Gibson Les Paul Custom 20th Anniversary White, 1974

This Gibson Les Paul Custom 20th Anniversary edition in White was built in 1974 to commemorate the 1954 launch of the ‘upmarket’ Les Paul Custom. Following the 1952 introduction of the original gold-top Les Paul model, Gibson added two new versions for 1954 – the top-end Custom and entry-level Junior – with the Special appearing in 1955.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson Earl Scruggs Standard Mastertone Banjo Sunburst, 2000

❌SOLD❌  Gibson Earl Scruggs Standard Mastertone Banjo Sunburst, 2000

Built from 1994 until a devastating flood hit Nashville in 2010, the Gibson Earl Scruggs Standard banjo reproduced the classic banjo that used by Scruggs. At first, the model was just named ‘Earl Scruggs’. The word ‘Standard’ was added in 1992, because two newer Scruggs models were introduced for the 1992 year, the ’49 Classic and the Golden Deluxe.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson ‘Lucy’ LPR-7 1957 Les Paul Red, 2007

❌SOLD❌  Gibson 'Lucy' LPR-7 1957 Les Paul Red, 2007

This is a very rare Gibson ‘Lucy’ LPR-7, reproducing George Harrison’s Les Paul and one of a very few built during 2007. Apparently five prototypes were built, then a run of perhaps 25 guitars, including this one, which were mostly aimed at the Japanese market. The project was then put on hold until 2013, when a larger run of 100 reissues were made.

The Epiphone Texan FT79N – the N indicating a Natural finish on the top rather than Sunburst – was built as a slope shoulder dreadnought from 1958 to 1970 when Epiphone production ceased in the USA. The Epiphone FT79 was originally built from 1941 to 1958 as a square shoulder dreadnought with Walnut back and sides until 1949, and then with laminated Maple until the company was sold to Gibson in 1958.
