Cushmic Sounds is pleased to offer this absolutely gorgeous All Original Vintage 1980 Gibson Les Paul Deluxe, finished in beautiful Cherry Sunburst, from my personal collection.
Serial: 80370539
Purchased from the original owner here in Perth, Western Australia. This beauty was originally acquired back in early 1982 from a music store in London.
It has never been gigged and spent all of its life in the music room, in its case with minimal play time.
Weighing in at 4.4kg (9.8lbs) with a solid 1-piece Mahogany body, 3-piece plain Maple top, 3-piece thin "C" shape Maple neck, Rosewood fretboard with 22 original frets, stunning figured Mother-of-pearl inlays, and original nut.
Featuring its original set of fantastic sounding PAT NO Gibson mini humbuckers with original CTS pots, caps, wiring, output jack, and 3-way switch.

All original hardware and plastics.
Original Gibson logo "flower" tuners are in perfect working order.
Comes with a non-original 1980s Gibson "Chainsaw" Hardshell Case with blue lining plus original Hang Tag.
Serviced and setup here at Cushmic Sounds with D'Addario 11-52 strings, frets cleaned and polished, fretboard cleaned and lightly oiled, intonation and action set, truss rod tested and works as it should, electronics tested, all hardware cleaned and secured.
NOTE: Tone pots are slightly scratchy, but still functional. Due to the originality, I'm reluctant to replace these, so I'll leave that to the new owner.
Original frets are in excellent condition with almost no wear, so playability is superb!
Overall condition is Exceptional. I'd love to list as 'Mint' but there are minor signs of wear throughout (See photos). I challenge anyone to find a cleaner example anywhere in the world currently for sale.
