prolly wrong though..............
I just checked to see if mine was, it was for the nut.

Yours says this:

A PLEK-cut nut made from black Corian™ subtly complements the black speed knobs and black pickup rings, while enhancing resonance and sustain. The traditional back-angled headstock is silkscreened with a gold Gibson logo and Les Paul Model.

So only your nut is plek'ed (like mine)

But I still need to replace my nut, it doesnt quite grab the G and B strings right. Slips a little. maybe string trees would be a better option for me, too.
