This 1960 Gibson Les Paul Special is a noteworthy find for collectors, given its excellent condition and rarity on the market, especially with the Brazilian rosewood fingerboard that enhances its resonance.

The lightweight construction at just 3.14kg adds to its appeal for both players and collectors alike, as vintage models often command high prices, particularly in Japan's discerning market.

The instrument’s originality, barring a minor strap pin modification, and its well-preserved state make it a solid investment, aligning it with premium vintage offerings while presenting a competitive pricing advantage compared to other models currently listed.

Collectors will appreciate not just the craftsmanship but the opportunity to own a piece with such a rich legacy in rock history.
