🔥 1999 Orville Les Paul Custom: Black, Broken-In, and Ready to Rock” 🔥
🔥 1999 Orville by Gibson Les Paul Custom – Ebony Black Beauty with Swag 🔥
This is a killer example of a 1999 Orville by Gibson Les Paul Custom in classic gloss black. Built during the golden era of Orville instruments, this guitar delivers authentic Les Paul tone, outstanding build quality, and that premium Custom look.
Finished in deep, mirror-like ebony black with multi-ply cream binding, gold hardware, and elegant pearl block inlays, this guitar looks sharp both on stage and in the studio. The body is hefty and resonant, while the neck carries a comfortable, chunky ’90s profile that feels great in the hand and has already been nicely played in.
Highlights:
• Original Gibson Pickups — True USA-made humbuckers that give you that rich, singing midrange, tight low end, and smooth highs. Roll the volume knobs back for instant bluesy sparkle or push them up for thick, sustaining classic rock crunch.
• Professionally Setup & Dialed In — Fresh pro setup with perfect action, intonation, and neck relief. It plays smoothly and effortlessly right out of the case — inspiring and ready to gig.
Condition & Honest Wear:
As expected on a 27-year-old guitar, it shows some honest battle scars including a few dings, dents, and scratches. Notably, there are some finish cracks on the back of the neck where it meets the headstock. These are purely cosmetic with no structural issues whatsoever — the neck is 100% rock solid with no breaks or repairs. There is also a small spot of cloudiness or whitening on the face of the headstock. (see pics) Overall, the guitar remains in very nice shape for its age and the finish still shines beautifully.
This Orville by Gibson is the real deal: high-quality Japanese craftsmanship under Gibson’s oversight, loaded with original pickups, and built to last. It offers that thick, sustaining Les Paul tone players chase, whether you’re into blues, rock, or anything in between.
If you’ve been looking for a great-playing, great-sounding black Les Paul Custom without breaking the bank on a USA model, this one is worth a serious look.

Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking Policy
We follow Reverb’s 7-day return policy. However:

We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.
Minor adjustments and tweaks to a set up (for example to correct a slight buzz or truss-rod tweak) are normal after shipping due to carrier mishandling the package, climate & atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments.

There is no post purchase haggling or partial refunds. If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy.
