Today, these guitars are highly sought after by collectors and players worldwide\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e. They are widely considered to be among the finest instruments Gibson produced during that era\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is not only a rarely seen Lefty Yamano Les Paul, but it remains incredibly clean for a 24 year old guitar. The body shows some very light surface marks, and a roughly 3 inch scuff in the finish near the output jack (see photo), but overall is in excellent condition with no major damage or issues. Neck shows a few very light surface marks but is overall very clean with no notable damage or blemishes. Headstock shows some light surface marks as well but is overall very clean. Fretboard is in excellent condition and frets show very little wear with no issues and tons of life left in them. Hardware shows some age and oxidization but is otherwise in great shape and all working perfectly. Neck volume control knob shows an internal crack forming, but is still functional. Electronics function perfectly and have been thoroughly cleaned. Original Burstbucker pickups sound fantastic. A stunning Lefty Les Paul with an incredible Honey Burst finish. Has been fully inspected and set up by our tech and ready for a new home. Includes Gibson hard case, though the combination lock is broken, see photo for details. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight: \u003c\/b\u003e9lbs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Profile: \u003c\/b\u003eC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Thickness:\u003c\/b\u003e 1st fret .802\", 12th fret .961\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFretboard Radius: \u003c\/b\u003e12\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut Width: \u003c\/b\u003e1 11\/16\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePickup Values:\u003c\/b\u003e Neck 7.72k, Bridge 8.10k\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eAbout Yamano Gibson's:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eLegendary Quality Control\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e: The Japanese market at the time demanded cosmetic and structural perfection\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.
