Custom Les Paul 1981 | Matsumoku Japan

A “Custom” model, you don’t come across these very often anymore! And not just any Custom, but in all likelihood one of their flagship models. This Les Paul features a solid maple top with hints of birdseye maple, a beautiful mahogany body, fret nibs, and fantastic-sounding PAF-style humbuckers.
At the time, these guitars were imported by the legendary music store Staffhorst in Utrecht. This particular instrument dates back to 1981 and clearly originated from the Matsumoku factory. Note the similarities to Aria Pro II; the tuners even bear the Aria logo.
Despite its substantial specifications, the guitar weighs only 3.8 kg. Furthermore, our luthier has restored the original frets to excellent condition. The instrument has been fully set up and is ready to play. It is also completely original.
Endless sustain, a beautifully warm tone, and excellent playability, a truly remarkable product from the legendary Matsumoku factory!
We are a retail shop; you are welcome to try out the guitar by appointment. Shipping is always an option. Trade-ins are also accepted (at trade-in values).
All guitars come with a 3-month warranty covering hidden flaws or technical defects (excluding normal wear and tear).
