Just in on trade! This is a super cool "Black Beauty" Les Paul Custom for the gigging player. It started out life as a two pickup 1983 Les Paul Custom. The previous owner added a Lollar P-90 in the middle position and added the Bigsby. The neck pickup is a Gibson Burstbucker and the bridge is a Duncan Antiquity.

The best part is customized wiring (all three pickup Gibsons should be wired this way in our opinion). Normally there isn't a way to get the bridge and neck together like you would on a two pickup guitar. Here, the three way switch works exactly the same way as it would on a two pickup Les Paul (Neck, Neck+Bridge, Bridge) and the knob closest to the output jack allows you to blend in the middle pickup in any position! This allows for maximum versatility while also giving you access to the most classic Les Paul tones. 

The playability is perfect up the fretboard thanks to a recent refret and nice straight neck. Weight is just around 10lb but it feels right for this guitar. It comes in its original hardshell case. Overall this is a very handsome and thoughtfully modified Les Paul Custom!
