79 Tokai les Paul reborn for sale.

I don’t know the guy personally who is selling guitar only have talked to him on phone. He was put in contact with me through mutual person who knows I collect MIJ guitars especially from late 70’s into the 1980’s. Guy lives local in camp hill pa local sale or he will ship it to you he is around fifty miles from me yet is still using 406 area code from I guess when he lived in Montana.

The reborn are all on point as in Nitro finish long neck tenon. These were the flagship guitars one third of cost that sent Gibson running to their attorneys to file lawsuits impeccable build one piece mahogany back solid flame maple top Brazilian rosewood fretboard. They are well some MIJ guitar’s are just beautiful instruments in their own way and others are not as much just like American made guitars ,he is also I think gonna list it on reverb.

I’m not interested as the guitar actually is a replica of a 58 les Paul and neck is really thick. He told me on phone neck is more 52-58 years the reborn I have LS is more 59 - 60 neck bought it off another soldier in West Germany in 85 for I think maybe $200 who knew that I found a diamond in the rough at that moment. I’ve seen these reborn go anywhere from two to four grand. And one online for like $7000 clearly the seller is sniffing glue ridiculous for that price your already in Gibson custom shop range and then still have cash left over.

This guy is asking around two thousand to twenty five as it’s not all original I think new tuners and faber bridge tail piece pics show wear but that’s fine. Just tells me it’s been loved and played for the last forty four years. If interested DM me I’ll send you his cell for you to text him at a decent hour.
