For Sale: 1986 Gibson Les Paul Custom – Rare Ferrari Red | Factory Second | Original Chainsaw Case Up for sale is a 1986 Gibson Les Paul Custom in the extremely rare and striking Ferrari Red finish, complete with its original Gibson chainsaw hard-shell case. Ferrari Red is one of the coolest and much less commonly seen finishes from this era, and it looks incredible against the traditional Les Paul Custom appointments, including the ebony fingerboard, multi-ply binding, block inlays, and gold hardware.
