2008 Gibson Les Paul Studio Purple Robot Conversion
This guitar was a Gibson Robot Tuner Les Paul Studio. It has been converted to a conventional Les Paul setup.
Doing so required a tuner change, which resulted in the addition of one screw hole per tuning machine. The replacement are Gotoh made Kluson reproductions. The tuners appear to be new - they work great and none of them are bent.
The pickups are original, as are the two bridges and three of the pots. Wiring is completely re-done, and it isn't really beautiful work, but the guitar sounds great. Wiring is per 50's spec.
The guitar shows wear and checking. It is on the lighter side for a Studio at just 7 pounds 14 ounces. Frets are in great shape, and the truss rod has been checked to make sure there is room for adjustment.
All in all, this is a great player's machine - a guitar you can play hard without worry, or maybe make it the test bed for trying new pickups.
Comes with a small acoustic gig bag that we put with the guitar just to get it to you safer.
