Our Take:
The Gibson Custom Shop never fails to amaze us with their unwavering attention to detail, and this '57 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue is no exception. From its foundational construction of solid mahogany and maple to its gleaming double gold, Nitrocellulose VOS finish, the Custom Shop '57 Goldtop is as much a statement piece as it is a formidable instrument to wield. It's so pretty, you almost don't want to play it - but letting those dual unpotted Custombuckers go unheard would be a shame, wouldn't it?
Gibson's Take:
The iconic '57 Goldtop has been the tool of choice for countless guitar heroes. Its elegant gold finish, classic solid mahogany/maple construction and versatile humbucking pickups represent everything one could possibly need in a Les Paul model. This authentic recreation exemplifies Gibson Custom Shop's tireless quest for accuracy to the original year of production, from the woods to the construction to the parts and precise contours throughout. Each Custom Shop Reissue is every bit the instrument and statement piece as the priceless vintage examples, providing an ownership experience that is endlessly fun.
