Detailed reproduction of the 1957 Goldtop Les Paul
The Gibson Standard Historic 1957 Les Paul Standard VOS Goldtop is based on a one-piece body of carefully selected mahogany on which the two-piece maple top is glued. The one-piece mahogany neck with long Neck tenon is glued with hot balgleim (Hot Hide Glue), which guarantees a perfect connection and vibration transmission at this neuralgic point due to its high hardness. With its strong profile, it offers the authentic Goldtop feel of playing, which is supported by the 12" fretboard radius of the Palisander fretboard.
Two Custom Bucker pickups deliver authentic PAF sounds.
