Was looking for a '68-69 Les Paul Custom without spending 5 figures.
Picked this beautiful refinished 1969 Custom for about 1/2 the price of a clean original.

I'm digging it. Gonna clean it up a bit after I finish playing it tonight. It's a winner. I have no problems with refins if I can save some bucks! :salude

Looks amazing, great score!! Original case and everything else looks stock. I've had mine since '81 and it's still my favorite.

Love those old late 60's / early 70's LP Custom.

Best way to enjoy a vintage guitar without spending the money on a collectors example. I’ve been playing my repaired headstock early ‘69 LPC regularly for a decade now. It plays and sounds just as good as a mint example costing 4x as much.
