2002 History SH-L2 1959 Les Paul / Paul Reed Smith Blend Timeless Timber Shimokura Special Order-Made Includes Original History Logo Hard Case & Documentation Sorry, this guitar is now SOLD
History (by Shimokura Music) made this guitar as its flagship 360,000 yen guitar. It cost nearly $3,500 with the hard case pictured when new. It features Timeless Timber wood, which is a fascinating story you can learn more about HERE. All woods are rare and exotic tone woods as old as 400 years in age. The top is AAAA solid quarter-sawn flamed maple, and the binding is also flamed wood of some exotic sort. The abalone inlays are very dark green and expensive, as is everything else about this guitar. Typical of the Japanese perfection fetish, this Les Paul / PRS blend design is nothing short of dazzling in tone, fit and finish, feel, and craftsmanship.
