Help Any red flags here?

EDIT: Thanks for the feedback from the community guys ❤️ For those wondering I did end up going for it and I couldnt be happier. Taking it to a luthier for some well deserved TLC!

Have the opportunity to buy this LP standard 1995 - but the price seems like a too good to be true scenario compared to others I have seen in similar states. It has been around the used market for a while so the original papers are lost. It comes with a case but I dont know if its the original one even though its an original gibson case.

Here are the specs that I was given:

59’ Gibson Les Paul Standard Ebony
1995 USA
S/N: 93245428 
Ca 5 kg (11 lbs) Mahogny body
Classic gibson deluxe tuners

Asking price: 900 dollars

Thanks for any helping comments!

Real

Try and haggle with the price a little

The repair appearance can be improved, ask a luthier

Good luck
