Traitorous Usurper
I remembered seeing this on Ebay awhile back and it looked exactly like the kind of thing that I need to own before I die. Only now, I can't find any pictures of it anywhere. The one I was looking at had a beaten copper alloy finish over the body (and the back of the neck for some stupid reason.) Anybody know what I'm talking about? Send me a link, eh? :D
 
Nope, it's a newer one. I used to be able to find it on Gibson's custom shop site, but now I can't navigate for shit around that thing. Some gallery they've got up...one friggin' guitar.
 
We're getting closer! Picture a really thin sheet of worn beaten copper. Now scrunch it all up into a ball. Now make a feeble attempt to smooth it out again. Then...somehow throw it on to a guitar.

I'll keep looking. This thing really is worth checking out. I wish I had the 1700 bucks that it was selling for at the time...

It was a Les Paul Elegant as well. The abalone looked really cool with the finish.
