Les Paul - Harley Benton SC-550 II DFB
Less than 1 year old...I need to thin the collection so if you know anything about these, this beauty is yours at a steal price that includes upgraded pickups. 60's style neck, very easy to play and the body is chambered and really light...still has that full LP sound though.

The finish is beautiful and discontinued (it's called “DBF” which may stand for “Desert Breeze Flame”...I can't recall) - This is different from the regular tobacco sunburst they offer now - notice how the sunburst is just on the very edge and goes up and around the pickup selector switch Instead of covering that whole section of the guitar black where the switch is. This is just a very tasteful burst that shows more of the wood, which has a beautiful grain.

This is a top-of the line deluxe model featuring stainless steel frets. I upgraded the pickups to ToneRider Alnico 4 Classics for a vintage voice. I have the stock Tesla pickups if you want them (these are an upgrade Harley Benton matched to this guitar after “the people had spoken” and asked them to upgrade from the previous Roswell pickups that are in most models but the ToneRiders sound much better).
