.but your looking to fund another project--
It plays very nicely.
Does it have a case?No. This isn’t funding another project.
Does it have a case?
Are you going to double pack it real good, so it doesn't get damaged?
What do the frets look like? Are they all worn down?
Specifically what PUs and what tuners are on it?
Does it have shielding inside the control cavity?
Why do you think somebody sold it as a husk? Wats up w/ that?
Some details.
1. Aftermarket (non-Gibson) Hard case is included in price. A leather Perri's strap is also included.
2. Will pack heavily.
3. Very minimal fret wear. No divots. Not jumbo frets.
4. Seymour Duncan Custom 5 (SH-14) in bridge and Seymour Duncan '59 bridge (SH-1B) pickup in neck.

6. Fully copper-shielded switch cavity, control cavity, and pickup cavities.
7. All 500K CTS pots. Neck and bridge volume pots are push-pull pots. Both the bridge and neck pickups are wired to coil split.
8. .015 mfd Orange drop caps for the neck and bridge tone controls.

The husk was from a 2007 LP Studio. There is some yellowing on the neck from use and age. There is also what appears to be a slight burn on the back of the headstock from a cigarette. I knew this was there when I bought it; it's one of the things that made me want this husk. I paid $595.00 for it.
Here's a link to the build thread where you can get more info and pics:
Les Paul Studio Project
And so, it begins... I just paid for a Les Paul Studio husk, in alpine white, with ebony fret board. My Stratocaster project has given way to a Les Paul project. This is the plan: I will install my never-used gold Kahler trem on it. Yes. I will finally put that piece of hardware to use! I...www.thetonerooms.com
It goes on Facebook Marketplace this weekend.

It's looks pretty good.Amp mad, I have seen and played this guitar. Smitty does good work. I cant tell you about his packing or case, but it did have one when he brought it over to jam. Smitty can answer the rest,

It's looks pretty good.
I'm just wondering how the modern weight relief affects the microphonic feedback. This is a new thing for me never had a weight relief guitar before.
Going to find out.

I'm using this guitar to test a new amp design. It's going to be something that nobody's done before.
