A 1956 Les Paul Gold Top, manufactured in 1997 during the early days of the Historic Collection, has arrived as a pre-owned item through our consignment sales service. Featuring traditional wood materials of a maple top and mahogany back, and a deep-joint set-neck construction, this guitar is equipped with two P-90 soapbar pickups, a key feature of the 1956 specifications. It outputs a vintage-like sound that is thick and raw, yet rich in harmonics. With clean tones, you can enjoy a glossy and three-dimensional resonance, and with overdrive, you can enjoy a powerful and impactful midrange. This particular guitar is in player's condition, with age-appropriate paint wear, minor cracks, scratches, playing wear, discoloration, and significant dents and tarnishing/rust on the hardware. The frets retain approximately 70% of their height, and there are no issues with playability, including the neck condition, truss rod, and electronics. This guitar can be enjoyed for many years to come. Please consider it!
