The Story

1957 Les Paul Reissue Double Gold Brazilian Rosewood Fretboard

A classic '57 Goldtop spec'd out with the top woods that you can find in the Gibson Custom Shop! We went with a VOS Goldtop color on this one and chose 'sorted for lightweight' mahogany that brings the total package to a nice 8 lbs, 4 oz. Not stopping there, we gave this one a coveted Brazilian rosewood fretboard! All the specs of a '57 are there; a chunky neck profile, ABR-1 bridge and two Custombucker pickups.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags and Paperwork
