Traded two nice guitars plus some cash for this old gal!!! 1973 Gibson '54 Les Paul Custom Black Beauty with a nice serial no!!! Pots are original with the exception of one pot change. Some backplate screws that are obviously wrong size and a non-original white selector switch. The rest seems to check out!!! The ABR-1 bridge was somehow reversed over the years with a leaning stud posts. Switched out the bridge and put a Faber bridge in for practical reason. The original bridge functions and intonate fine but I figured it's old so I will preserved it instead.
Had a 3 pickup black beauty reissue in the past and missed that!!! So glad I took the plunge to get it!!! Staple n P90 are sublime!!
