Replica of the Les Paul Standard from 1954
With the Gibson 1954 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold, the Gibson Custom Shop presents a replica of the legendary 54 Les Paul with gold top, which, after the 52 model, laid the foundation for the legendary success of the Singlecut design and wrote blues and rock history in the hands of Freddie King or Jeff Beck. Using the historically documented construction with a mahogany neck and body as well as high-quality Custom Soapbar P-90 pickups and add-on parts, the 1954 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue impresses with authentic vintage sounds of the Fifties, while the VOS nitrocellulose finish conveys the look and feel of a vintage original.
Authentic playing feel and historically accurate specs: The Gibson 1954 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold from the Custom Shop is a detailed reissue of the coveted original from 1954.
The one-piece "'50s Rounded Medium C" mahogany neck is connected to the body of the '54 Les Paul via a long neck foot and glass-hard hide-glue.
Authentic production methods of the fifties
To get as close as possible to the sound and feel of a vintage original, the Luthiers of the Gibson Custom Shop Luthiers of the 1954 Les Paul Reissue rely on the traditional manufacturing methods of the Fifties. matching, the one-piece mahogany body carries a two-piece maple top, while the mahogany neck with long neck foot is inserted into the body. Hide-glue with a glass-hard consistency and the thin nitrocellulose finish guarantee a lively sound development of the guitar. The more powerful "'50s Rounded Medium C" neck profile also sits comfortably in the hand and promises authentic playing characteristics on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.
Gibson Custom P-90 single coils with soapbar caps and hand-wired electrics guarantee authentic vintage sounds for blues and rock.
Custom bucker pickups and hand-wired electrics
The electric sound conversion of the '54 Les Paul is naturally handled by two GibsonCustom Soapbar P-90 pickups with classic, cream-colored plastic caps. The single-coil pickups, wound according to historical specifications in the Custom store, elicit surprisingly fat vintage sounds with a powerful mid-range spectrum and silky brilliance in the highs, which respond agilely to the playing style and thus form the ideal basis for the traditional clean and overdrive sounds of Blues and rock. Hand-wired electrics with a high-quality Switchcraft toggle for pickup selection and separate volume and tone pots from CTS for each pickup also allow precise adjustment of the sound, with paper-in-oil caps promising smooth roll-offs of the treble.
Kluson tuners with a historically correct look keep the 1954 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue securely in tune.
