• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

A 'player's' guitar all right - repaired hs break, refin, but with most of the original electronics still there, and a cool looker (not mine):

Cool guitar and the price seems to have been pretty good - it sold quickly

Strange bird. Title says this is a 1962 but listing says 1964. Most likely a '62 based on the Les Paul Custom cover above neck pickup, and the vibrola unit. Cannot see the L-tool marks on the one pickup photo. Decal looks good. So many early 60's SG's have had neck repairs, you almost expect it to happen. Seller has a 5-star rating, and seems to know his stuff. One wonders where the various pieces eventually wound up. I would steam the neck off just to repair another custom in worse shape, or just refin back to white. Did some customs come from the factory in a walnut finish over mahogany?
