An all-original Gibson Les Paul goldtop from 1956. Need we say more? One of the most iconic electric guitars of all time, and this example is a breeze to play and more fun than we could hope to describe. Our repair shop has gone over it in painstaking detail to verify that everything is in tip-top and original shape—and everything lines up except the high e saddle adjustment screw. The P-90s roar, and all the hardware and electronics work like a charm.
A goldtop this sweet is, to smudge a phrase, as good as gold. For both collectability and playability. And what more could you want?

In the 50s Gibson made a number of these goldtop Les Pauls, and they became so iconic that the term Goldtop is now used to define that era. Many great players have slung a gold up on their neck for recordings and performances all around the world. When I grab this one, I am immediately reminded of my teenage self, dreaming of being a rock star. This one is all there, and plays like a dream, all original but for one saddle screw, so it’s also a collectible dream. I guarantee that the next owner will be motivated to grab it and play it very often. It’s definitely a dream guitar. | Scale Length | 24.625 in |
