Gibson Les Paul Slash Inspired By "Jessica" VOS (2008)

This guitar from the Gibson Custom Shop's “Inspired By” series is a replica of Slash's original 1987 Les Paul Standard, the famous guitar from the “Sweet Child O' Mine” video and the “Appetite for Destruction” tour. Perhaps the most played guitar in his career, which he nicknamed “Jessica”. The original was made available to him by Gibson for the first major “Guns N' Roses” tours. He immediately had it repainted as the original color was too bright for him, giving it a unique “Honey Burst with Red Back”. It features the three-piece maple top typical of the 80s, two Seymour Duncan “Alnico II Pro” humbuckers, a mahogany body and neck, Kluson tuners and Schaller strap locks. The iconic look is perfected here by a beautiful VOS finish, which gives the guitar a great vintage patina and avoids flaws and paint abrasion. As expected the neck with its pleasant Slash profile, which is very similar to a Medium 59, is super comfortable in the hand and the Seymour Duncans deliver a phenomenal Rock board: smacking, fat and roasting as you would expect from Saul Hudson. “Sweet Child O' Mine”, ‘Welcome to the Jungle’, ‘Paradise City’ at their best! As the mini-series of this iconic instrument was limited to just 400 specimens you not only get a beautiful and soundmighty guitar with the best playability, but also the best value retention. Furthermore, the future owner can look forward to a hangtag with Slash's photo and the fact that this iconic guitar is in top condition apart from slight traces of use on the first frets.
