There are dozens of manufacturers out there that are building replacement parts and accessories for Gibson guitars.
By using only authentic Gibson parts and accessories, you'll end up with a guitar that's going to maintain its value for decades to come. If you love your Les Paul, you'll be assured of having a guitar that will hold its value for dozens of years. In many cases, even so-called Guitar experts are fooled, as the parts are indistinguishable from the "real thing!"
Use only genuine Gibson parts if you want your guitar "investment" to maintain its value, while at the same time feeling and playing like a new instrument!
