Reasonable offers will be considered. If you know what this is, then you know what this is. This is the HOLY GRAIL of the Joe Perry Les Paul’s – not just the Boneyard, but any of his Les Paul’s. This is one of the rarest Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul’s ever made. If you’re not familiar with this Guitar then here’s the history of it. When Gibson and Joe Perry decided to do another run of signature guitars after his 1997 black burst they came up with the Boneyard. The first run had “Pilot Run” written on the back of the headstock. The 500 later models had “BoneXXX” on the back of the headstock. This particular Pilot Run Boneyard is in MINT condition. I recently had a complete setup on it (receipt is in the pics). This plays like a dream. It sounds amazingly close to a 1959 Les Paul. I’ve played several Boneyard guitars and this one is the best by far. The Pilot Run’s had a much higher quality control than the production Boneyard guitars. This Top is AAAA flame. This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity for any collector or Joe Perry fan. You won’t see another Boneyard Pilot run come up for sale again. It’s one of the most collectible guitars Gibson has ever made. Ever since the bands classic early hits like Walk This Way, Same Old Song and Dance, Sweet Emotion, Toys in the Attic, and Back in the Saddle, Aerosmiths Joe Perry has been known for coining some of the fiercest riffs in music. No one rocks harder than Perry and Aerosmith, and no band has more intensely embodied the life, either, through ups and downs, departures and comebacks, they have remained a rock icon in the classic sense: mean, raw, and ready rip up the stage. For four decades, Perry has made the Gibson Les Paul his go-to guitar, and this legendary electrics fat tone, singing sustain, and unparalleled playability have remained at the center of his sound. Gibson Custom honors Perrys achievement with the Joe Perry Boneyard Les Paul, an instrument that embodies both the radical style and the unparalleled tone of this reiffmeister supreme. The Joe Perry Boneyard Les Pauls looks are likely to capture you first. The guitar is resplendent in a highly figured carved maple top, with a custom Green Tiger finish in nitrocellulose lacquer to superbly show off all the depth and dimension of the stunning wood the Custom Shop has selected for this project. Vintage cream binding, aged nickel hardware, and vintage style tulip-button tuners keep it all simple and classic, while a mother-of-pearl Boneyard headstock inlay and truss-rod cover engraved with Joe Perrys signature announce that this guitar is something special. In the tone department, the traditional pairing of a Tune-o-matic (ABR-1) bridge and stopbar tailpiece (with Bigsby vibrato optional) offer superb string-to-body coupling for enhanced resonance and sustain, while two of the Custom Shops most popular humbucking pickupsa BurstBucker 2 in the neck for warm, vocal tones, and a slightly hotter BurstBucker 3 in the bridge for. Midrange grind and singing lead tonescomplete the classic Les Paul sonic appointments. Wrap it all up, and its an axe to rattle some bones, and raise the deadthe Joe Perry Boneyard Les Paul.
