Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
Gibson's Custom Shop does it again with this wonderful point to point recreation of one of the most iconic Les Paul's in history. This '56 Gold Top reissue has a deep rounded neck that screams 1950's design while still being plenty comfortable across the entire fingerboard. With an exceptionally lightweight body (under 8 lbs!) and period-correct construction, this particular serial has it all and then some!
