You take good pictures buddy. You fixed the pickguard? Mine has no holes yet...can't bear to drill it.

Re: WTS: 2010 Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul 1957 Re-issue Limited

I'm curious.

Did the case come with the guitar? Looking at the shape of the case it almost looks like a case for a Jumbo-Acoustic.

I may be wrong, as I usually am.

No need to drill. I marked the holes with a sharp pick. The pickguard I used was a 5 ply I bought separate along with the correct truss rod cover and knobs. I was trying to match how Joe has his CAB-JBLP. 

I would not mount the pickguard since your selling. Leave that up to the new owner.

OK if Spider says your clear then I humbly apologize for questioning and calling the guitar a fake.  Good luck with the sale and welcome to the forum even though I feel like an **** now.

I've have owned one of these CAB 57 LP's before. From the couple of pics shown it looks right but I still want to see more detailed pictures. Yes they did come with chrome hardware. As the seller said the color will change depending upon the lighting. It's really a cool color. I kick myself daily for letting mine go.

It has a GREAT home

I found his add for this on a Singapore website. (linked below) The top picture the seller uses is a picture thats posted on TGP. (linked below)

Not sure why a seller wouldn't want to use their own pictures??

lol because im a lazy bast*rd. (Well that could be part of the reason) , But mainly it's because i felt that the picture was well taken and it captured the essence of this guitar.

Hey..dont need to go all CSI on me man...hahaha.

Alright, i spent some time taking proper pictures. Check them over @ Flickr
