Product information "Gibson Les Paul 1957 Goldtop Reissue V.O.S. Double Gold"
In the history of the legendary Les Paul sound, the 1957 Goldtop represents a fundamental tonal change: the introduction of the "humbucker pickup". This lovingly crafted reissue has been carefully crafted to perfectly replicate the exquisite, full-throated sound of the early PAF humbuckers - and the custom-wired, non-spotted Alnico 3 pickups definitely deliver. The rare combination of revolutionary electronics with the substantial 50s Rounded C neck profile, ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, slim and narrow frets and iconic goldtop styling (complete with top hat knobs) give this version of the classic Les Paul the look, feel and endlessly resonant sound of the original 1957 model.
