Used And Vintage Electric Guitars

Up for sale is a recreation of Joe Bonamassa's 1958 Gibson Les Paul Custom, known as the "Black Beauty". It features a mahogany body, 50's neck profile and three ProBucker pickups.  Originally sold here at Truetone, it got on the Be Back Bus and made it's way in through the door again - we're happy to see it again.

Joe Bonamassa once again partnered with Epiphone to lovingly replicate one of
his most-prized guitars, his "Black Beauty" Les Paul Custom. When Bonamassa
visited Hauer Music in Centerville Ohio he walked away with a 1958 Gibson™ Les
Paul™ Custom in black - otherwise known as the “Black Beauty,” one of the rarest
electric guitars made and one of the most coveted.

This limited-edition recreation has a 50s neck profile for an era-correct feel, LP Custom bound body and neck, nonweight relieved mahogany body, unique vintage tuners, Orange Drop® capacitors, CTS® potentiometers, two Epiphone ProBucker™ 2 and one ProBucker™ 3 pickups, and a Switchcraft® output jack.

The guitar comes with the original hardshell case with gold hardware and yellow gold plush lining.  Also included is the Certificate of Authenticity.  The guitar is in good condition (see photos for a scratch on the side of the guitar - the front and back are very clean), and the techs in our shop have set it up to play perfectly.  It's ready to go!
