1957 Gibson Les Paul – Goldtop
Description
This 1957 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop with its original gold hardware and factory Bigsby is a remarkably gorgeous and incredibly rare piece of Gibson history! Despite the Bigsby, the guitar has a very comfortable weight, and you can feel the whole instrument resonate with each and every note. This guitar has two first-year PAFs and can easily deliver that legendary tone with ease in any pickup configuration. The tuner holes were slightly enlarged at some point to accommodate other tuners, but there are no additional holes, and the original tuners are back on the guitar. With all original components and even the original sales receipt, this guitar really is the total package!
Overall Condition: 8, light forearm wear, patina, playwear on the back of the body
